New, Larger Backup Servers

We just got our 2 new backup servers online from The Planet giving us 2.6 terabytes of space for backups.

Our staff is working on migrating our backup systems to these 2 machines which will then allow us to make more frequent backups and alleviate some previous hard drive space problems.

These two machines are located in a data center completely separate from our other machines. If an event should occur in the future similar in scale to the explosion at The Planet's H1 data center, we should be able to restore even more quickly than last time.

Thank you all for supporting ProBoards!

  • Very nice. I have to admit. That must cost alot though. :P

    Now is that 2.6 terabytes between the two servers? Or for each one?

    It doesnt matter. Thats a lot of space either way.
