The location of that solenoid/air control under the car next to the air tank demonstrates the Land Rover are not serious about off roading. It's another ridiculous piece of design, there are plenty of dry places where that lump could have been located.

Yes that may well be the case but at least they protected the assy with a piece of plastic :rolleyes:

If you go off road in car and go in water deeper than the sill step then the assy is drowned at that point - at least on the P38 the majority of the EAS is on the top of the N/S inner wing

It will also suffer at speed in heavy rain methinks:mad:
 
Seen a couple of large'ish server rooms, only as I was doing some electrical work in there.

Some of the set ups were mind blowing lol

On my server i only have 4 drives.

One pair of drives each mirrored onto the second. (so raid 1 I think)

Purely for backup purposes incase a drive fails.
We resale Backup-Technology solutions and their data centres are intense. It took 2 months to get clearance to be able to enter, which included having a retinal scan. But it isn't for anything smaller than enterprise. The costs involved are too vast.

Mirrored isn't a backup solution, RAID reduces the risk of lost data in the event of single drive failure, but it isn't replacement for true backup. Especially given the rebuild time required for a 2TB drive, if it is in use it isn't uncommon for one of the drives to fail during a re-image (SATA drives are high risk for failure during re-imaging, this risk is increased more so if you're using cheap drives). Or if your RAID controller dies. In that event you've lost everything and required to send your HDDs off to a recovery centre who charge a small fortune for the privilege.

RAID != Backup
 
Oi you lot I started a pic hosting thread just for you to talk servers hosting packages gif's and jpg's :blah::blah::blah:

ohh, i might have to have a re-think then... im no IT wiz as you can probably see. im a sparks, so usually wiring up the 3 phase supply's to the server racks rather than programming them ! lol

If an Aspergers sufferer can get into the NASA computers, I'm sure it's possible to get into your servers without a retinal or even a rectal scan:eek:

Getting into computers via t'internet is one thing and TBH, NASA isn't famed for having the best security, we just like to think as it is a gov't organisation they will have every modern toy, but the truth is they have some alarming legacy systems which are a massive compromise to the networks integrity. But the chap who pulled off that hack used old fashioned Social Hacking. There is an old but effective trick to get passwords for systems. Phone the company pretending to be the secretary for some big wig (at this point doing some homework to get names helps and for a company the size of the US Military, it becomes very easy for this to work), say bigwig forgot their login details. Few companies will bother disturbing the chap in question to verify so hand over the details freely.
You can use Social Hacking for damn near anything, while I was at uni I used it to get free pizza a lot.

The data for our backups are heavily encrypted to the point where without the key, there is no way this side of the year 3,000 they could access the data they stole. But I still prefer a local backup. Although unless you have two houses or a safe deposit box, two disk off-site strategy is meaningless. Might as well save some cash and only have one external HDD. There are some pretty good fire retardation cases these days too.
 
Man can break any code invented by man, all that is required is the incentive to do it.
Tell that to GCHQ. If you know the key that set the cypher, then yes, it is easy peasy. Without it you need to do a brute force attack to try every conceivable combination to crack it.

When you consider a password like "Datatek is in Fance." will require more time than exists to crack (Linkage), you can see the problem. Sure you could in theory crack any code, but without the information you need, it can take more time than the human race have left on earth to do it.

Ohwee! Password 'Datatek in France' has got me into all sorts of weird websites!!:eek::eek::eek:
