disk spaaaaaaaaaace!

approximately 1.6terabytes in servers.

including desktop/laptops i’ve surpassed the 2terabyte mark :)

psrv2 is now almost fully functional, requiring only a small kernel recompile and some more services. i have a few future plans for integrating the two psrvs together more closely, but that will take place over a longer period of time.

psrv is almost operative at gigabit speeds, just requiring a quick swap of primary eth interface. gigabit sure is nice – everyone better upgrade their network interfaces to make the most of burst transfers at future lans :)

2 lans marked my arrival back in perth quite well, and while we didn’t get *that* much gaming done at either, NDS were definitely the most fun part! mario kart owwns.

so were 24″ monitors of various brands with xbox360s connected. finally experienced uno for myself! would be nice to have a 360, but the $1000ish price tag is just a bit…

wtf md came to lan but left after 3 hours :( FAILED

the birth of psrv2

July 22nd, 2006

is near!

despite being short a cpu and one sata data cable, the production of psrv2 is well on its way.  final stats are yet to be known for sure, but it will hold over a terabyte for sure :)

psrv the original will find a place in my room, and still have its 485gb array as well as manage all gateway networking.

i also got hold of a new viewsonic 20″ lcd.  there was no way i could return to a 5:4 lcd after the 4 months spent on my widescreen vaio… so this was a necessary purchase.  it look so nice :) .

net in the sky~

July 18th, 2006

i felt like i couldn’t go through a flight with wireless available and not using it. so i paid the nominal fee of 9.99US for 1 hour access.

i’m flying and surfing at the same time!

@11hours to perth. lan soon :) :)

on the way home i guess?

July 16th, 2006

i guess its finally nearing the end of my stay in japan…

today was quite a fun yet tiring day.  first of all, i caught the overnight bus from himeji to shinjuku, leaving at 2130 and arriving at 0630.  that was quite a fun ride, but i didn’t get much sleep :( .

then i stepped off the bus, and faced the problem of getting my suitcase halfway across tokyo in the fucking 26c humid stickiness at 7am…  that took quite a few trains and busses.

then i went to meet tencho!  it turns out he’s quite a long way away from where i am based, and as i absent-mindedly caught a local (stops every stop (客亭)), it took over 3 hours to get there.

we did some work together, and i was his assistant for the day lol.  then ate probably the last decent meal i will eat in japan, and trashed the streets and office buildings on atsugi.

i guess i didn’t mention that i forgot to eat anything from before i boarded the bus, until i ate dinner with tencho. oops.

i doubt ill make another entry before i hit sg to bye for now~
