New harddrive arrived and installed.

Hello everyone.

Yesterday the new hard drive, kindly donated by Ronald, arrived.
It is a Seagate Barracuda ES 250GB Type ST3250620NS.

I have installed it in the server, and after much fuss with mixing Serial ATA and normal IDE it is now working.

I will start setting up a backup scheme to run daily backups of the Album, websites, databases and mail to this drive.

At the same time I am working on switched my external hosting provider to a new one.
The External hosting provider is hosting some other domains that I own. www.levinsen.nu, www.bt-rota.net, www.eldaria.com, and www.gobly.net.
With this new provider I have a massive amount of space available, and I will use some of this space as an External backup solution.
More on this later.

Hopefully in the future I will scrape together enough money to build a 1 or 2 Unit high server and then host all of the domains on my own server, but co-located for better reliablilty. But this is probably some years into the future.

Hello everyone.
One of my collegues decided to go on Holiday, and as part of that he wants to have a blog, and an album.
So I offered him some space on my Server.
You can find the blog here.
And the album here.

As you have seen earlier there is no backup solution on the server, well as a thanks he offered to pay for an extra harddrive.
So soon I will install an additional 250Gig Harddrive that is going to act as a Backup.

Thank you Ronald.
