We're using Super Micro on two 100TB (net storage after RAIDz2 overhead) systems for Bacula backup storage, and it's been running stably ever since I replaced those "#$"#$%/!!#% WD Black drives with Hitachi Deskstars. These boxes are setup using 11 RAIDz2 VDEVs with 7 2TB drives each.

I all pedagogikk er det essensielt at pensum presenteres intelligibelt. Det er et elementært imperativ for alle pedagoger å unngå eksessiv anvendelse av idiomer med fremmed opprinnelse. I de fleste tilfeller eksisterer adekvate og relevante synonymer på norsk.
