Except that Lance would like to get the server back first because he wants to make some upgrades to the OS and change out a disk that is developing some bad sectors. Not that it can't be done in the three weeks of set up...but it might be around a month or so. But it would all be for the good of the site, so it doesn't run into problems later.

If the server uses SCA SCSI drives, get me a part number.

I might be able to find some new drives at work wink

I just need the old one back to return as residue.

I am only doing this for Lance and the CEG server, not for everyone out there who wants a new hard drive.

Just a thought, but I think offering a member status based on how much one donated would be a bad idea. I think it may create a "holier than thou" attitude by some if they were "platinum status" members. If a CEGer donated $25 and only had $100, and another donated $100 and had $12000, who really donated more? Not knocking the fact that people should not be appreciated and recognized for helping, but it would be like putting people in a "social class". Again, just a thought, I'm just glad CEG will be here.

We discussed that last night and we aren't going to do that for various reasons, one which you stated above. Plus the time it would take for someone to do that and the new UBB software we are using doesn't allow you to do anything like that.

That's cool, I was just spurting out random thoughts and ideas all day yesterday. The more I thought about it, the more I could see the inherent problems in it. And I thought that option would really only be good if we had a hard time raising money, which obviously we didn't. laugh

Ummm...not sure yet. Lance doesn't know at the moment what kind of SCSI drives are in there as Matt so graciously put them in. He's not sure if they are SCA, 68- or 80-pin connectors.

Could probably run a format or look at the logs from when it booted last. There should be a model number displayed when the drive was last probed.

I could look up the model and see if I can help you out.
