Ooooh a rackmountable NAS box. Yes actually I do know what it is. Don't you guys remember I'm actually a network engineer in my formal training? :lol:
The whole point of the picture is the words TURBO on it. Of course you can also see the front turbo in the picture too! :fawk:
Oh, and calling me a mechanic is an insult. I'm so much more than that.

The fact you call it a "rackmountable NAS box" belies your ignorance. Anybody can Google the part number and come up with a generic description like you gave. Understanding that it has 4TB of cache and operates at over 40,000 iops is what makes you go "holy shit".Ooooh a rackmountable NAS box. Yes actually I do know what it is.

Now...what makes me go "holy shit" about a 2.5l twin turbo engine sitting on a pallet? What are you planning on doing with it?
...and yes, you're just a mechanic, like I'm just a computer guy. Stop thinking more of yourself than you need to. People are impressed with results, not with a braggart. :fawk:

Mechanics don't fabricate.
Mechanics don't run businesses.
I'm an entrepreneur.
And what about 40,000 IOPS is supposed to make me go holy shit? An OCZ REVODrive PCIe 3 X2 setup does 200,000 IOPS for far less money! Sure that box above is great for DB R/W due to it's huge cache... but come on now... Hell raid 0 some gskill phoenix pro's and you've got your 40,000 IOPS for a tiny fraction of the cost!
MHz doesn't excite me anymore. BHP does.

It excites me because it's fully redundant, and has over 60TB of storage. That, and the fact that it's fully replicated at two separate sites over 500 miles apart, and supports 250+ servers. Comparing a puny little SSD with it's limited write cycles and minuscule disk space is like me comparing my Spyder GS to that GTR that ran 9's in the 1/4 mile.
So...what are you going to do with that engine, other than give it the finger?

Greg, I'm not trying to be an asshat here (because i respect all the info you have put forth), but why the hell would you start a thread if it won't be completed till 9 years later? It seems no better that one thread that you started saying you found a new tranny that will be compatible with our platform, yet you refuse to inform us.
Again, i'm not trying to be a dick, but it really is "attention whoreish". You really wanna impress us, get off your ass and finish Charles' rice rocket. :fawk:
