New case for my server
I received my Antec 300 case this morning, naturally I photographed the unpacking! At this time I can’t install the components yet as the server is backing up my files. Hopefully it’ll be done soon!! BTW, the top fan is HUGE!!

Why DropBox is every photographer’s friend.
about 8 months ago - No comments
I do intend to write a blog about all the software tools I use to make my job a little easier, but for now I want to talk about a little utility I use daily called Dropbox. Dropbox is probably the best file synchronisation and ‘cloud’ manager there is. I can work on any file…
Why is it professionals still don’t backup/archive regularly?

It is shocking how many people still do not have a computer backup system in place. Fair enough, when it comes to complaincency I’m terrible at business administration (my filing is way behind), but in my mind backing up critical files is something that cannot be delayed. If you are a Windows user, Microsoft has…
FreeNas vs Windows 7 RAID5

I have created another dilemma for myself in my search for the best backup solution although secretly I love this stuff, any excuse to do something rally geeky. With my recent purchase of the Synology DS1010+ I’m able to make it work in an apple environment (more on that later) so I’m selling my Drobo…

I received the Synology DS1010 less than a week ago. I’ve not really had time to put it through it’s paces, but I thought I would write about my impressions so far. The unit itself is heavy for it’s size, sleek and does look the business in an understated fashion. I initially loaded it up…
Antec 300. My messy case!

I’m an Apple Mac fan. Although I own three Apple computers I still can’t get away from Microsoft Windows. I’m quite happy with the latest incarnation Windows 7 which is the only reason I have it around. Built around the Antec 300, it has become my third backup solution of my photos. As you can…
Antec 300 & Adaptec 2410 Raid controller
about 2 years ago - No comments
I spent some hard earned money yesterday; I bought a new Antec 300 case and the Adaptec 2410 raid controller for my server. I still haven’t decided on which OS so I’ve left it until I receive those two components and I will try to document as much as I can to help out those…
Storage & backup solutions for Photographers.
about 2 years ago - 3 comments
On my last count, I have over 60,000 photos in my archives, that is roughly 650 gigabytes of images which I need to access, store, archive and backup. I need something that fitted my requirements: Easy accessibility. I don’t want to anything that could slow down my work flow. It also has to tie into…
