I'm considering getting a Dell Precision M3800 Mobile Workstation, would want to install my own mSATA SSD in it. Does anyone here have one of these machines? If so, is an SSD a user-installable component? And if so again, how much needs to be taken apart? Thanks much.

Does anyone know about this device? SESX3Y11Z 32 GB 2.5-Inch SATA Solid State Drive with Marlin Bracket for Sun SPARC Enterprise T5120, T5220, T5140 and T5240 Servers, RoHS-6 Compliant This is from Sun''s catalog for the T5120 server. Would this work well as a separate ZIL device for ZFS? Is there any way I could use this in a T2000 server? The brackets appear to be

I have a 50 gig OCZ Vertex LE drive that needs a firmware update. When I run the Windows only flash program in wine it doesnt see the SATA ssd drive it needs to flash. I have booted off another hard disk. I need administrator privileges to see the drive so I config'd wine for win98. I also tried to manually add the drive in wine config by adding the /media/xxxx path and also manually

Hello guys, I want to make echo tail parameter in my app changeable during run-time. So my question is:f Should I use speex_echo_state_reset function for this? Just call speex_echo_state_init function with new values after that? Or perform a full de-initialization and initialize echo cancellation with new tail value? I'm also using preprocessor - does the same apply to it?

I've been thinking of making a (mostly) solid-state asterisk pbx. Take either centos or some other distro, cut it down to bare minimum and put asterisk + AMP on. Something that could be put onto a usb2.0 flash stick, bootable. Modern flash devices (usb, compactflash) have builtin wear leveling management and will last longer than you think:

Hi, I don''t know if it''s already been discussed here, but while thinking about using the OCZ Vertex 2 Pro SSD (which according to spec page has supercaps built in) as a shared slog and L2ARC device it stroke me that this might not be a such a good idea. Because this SSD is MLC based, write cycles are an issue here, though I can''t find any number in their spec. Why do I

I''m looking to try BTRFS on a SSD, and I would like to know what SSD optimizations it applies. Is there a comprehensive list of what ssd mount option does? How are the blocks and metadata arranged? Are there options available comparable to ext2/ext3 to help reduce wear and improve performance? Specifically, on ext2 (journal means more writes, so I don''t use ext3 on SSDs,

Hi everybody, I am using btrfs as my main fs for some time now, but I am experiencing severe performance drawbacks. I can''t qualify the circumstances, but sometimes during disc access the whole system freezes for some time. Maybe somebody could suggest some general things I could try to search for the problem? Thanks in advance, Florian --- Some background information: $ mount |

Hi all Is it possible to securely delete a file from a zfs dataset/zpool once it''s been snapshotted, meaning "delete (and perhaps overwrite) all copies of this file"?

What F/OSS does "secure erase"? And does it do

I''m attempting to deploy a rails application using switchtower. My IT guys are refusing to give me sudo for a user changeable script. I really can''t argue with their logic. If I have sudo for a script that I can update, well, I can do most anything I want. They are suggesting I create a cgi that performs the same function. Since the cgi would run as www-data (this is a debian

This change makes ring buffer reclaim threshold num_free configurable for better performance, while it's hard coded as 1/2 * queue now. According to our test with qemu + dpdk, packet dropping happens when the guest is not able to provide free buffer in avail ring timely. Smaller value of num_free does decrease the number of packet dropping during our test as it makes virtio_net reclaim buffer
