  1. Ok thank you for the information everyone. It was a lot of help now comes the fun part.
  2. So I do have a question if I used windows server 2012 to bind the ports using the nicteam software built in do I need to have a switch that supports this or will it just work on it own?
  3. So when I directly connect a workstation it is significantly faster, I think I will go with just aggregating 2-4 ethernet connections together to the server.
  4. Well I just did that it does not look to be the software. On the server it does not take to long to load. The work stations are all quad core i5 with an intel network card they are all hardliners in and have 256 go ssd and an navia Mobil 960 cards. So they should not be the problem. The network is 8 years old. The server is now 4 but still over kill for what they are doing. At this point I think it has to be something wrong with their server bar card or with the network itself.
  5. I just checked the server it is running a raid 10 with only 4 drives but it's read is 240 mb on average. Which should be enough for what they are doing. When you load off the server it is instant to load the images off the drive through the software they are using. The servers specs are an 8 core Xeon processor running at 2.2 Ghz 16 go of error correcting ddr3 memory and 4 1tb 7200 rpm drives from seagate.
  6. I know it is not in the gigabytes at most it should be a few MB my field of work is in software more than networking. I have a feeling it is the software that they are using for this. The company keeps telling them that the issue is their hardware so I am trying to remove that as an issue so they have to actually look into the issue at hand. They have 8 drives in raid. I will check tomorrow when I go in tomorrow to see if it is the array is having an issue, but they do need to redo their network and that is being redone no matter what. I would like to help give them a set-up that will work for a while. The hardware and raid I understand more than the networking.
  7. So they are a dentist so this server has all the medical records including x-ray images insurance claims and so on. It should not need a lot, but it is taking forever to open anything from the server I have been narrowing down what the issue could be. So far all I know is it is an issue with their very bad networking setup. I just want to do this right, I know a decent amount about networking but I am not working in the field so figured I would ask here. All the computers even the server currently have 1gbps Ethernet adapters. This server is also used for the windows local domain login services they use. I think binding the ethernets might be the right way to go I just need to read up on how to go about doing it. I remember watching the video on it that Linus made.
  8. Well to be fair I am not 100% sure I just know they need to have at least 3-4 people accessing at the same time. I would have to get a new networking card for the server to have more ethernet ports on the server to connect to the switch to bind the connections. I also thought there can be a few issues with binding connections together.
  9. The current network is only working at 1gbps across everything so if more than one person is accessing anything it just stops working or will take 3 min to load the person files.
  10. I am in the process of overhauling the network to a server and its workstations in an office. I am here because I am a few question in regards to Mini-GBIC. I am replacing the offices two 8 port Netgear switches with a cisco SG102-24NA. This should help remove some bottlenecks the workstations are having when it comes to communicating with the server. Now the server needs to have its network card upgraded and I am thinking of moving it over to a Mini-GBIC since I have read this connector has a larger bandwidth. I am just wondering if it is worth it. The cost is not an issue but I need to eliminate this bottleneck that they are having. If this is the best option, what connectors/cable and PCI expansion card would be the best to go with? The server is running windows server 2012 and is used for the DNS log in transferring data like photo and stuff of that nature. The server will only be a few feet from the switch as well. If this is not the best option what would be?
  11. I don't have gsync enabled though and I am not using HDMI. Thank you for you input though it is appreciated since I have been googling all day without much luck.
  12. haha not a problem sorry it has been a long day I get this gray flicker and sometimes the screen loses it connection. It looks like interference. I thought it was the cables so I replaced them and the issue was still there. Once I shut the monitor off and back on the issues will go away till I restart the computer. I also did not have this issue with the clean install of windows 10 till I set the display scaling factor to 100% instead of the 150% it had them on.
  13. So I recently built a new computer I have an Evga gtx 1080 super clocked edition running 3 1440p monitors from asus through display port. The issue that I am having has continued even though a clean install and updating my graphics drivers to the newest version. I did notice this issue started to happen once I set the windows scaling factor for the monitors to 100%. I was wondering if anyone else has had this issue and might know a fix other than turning it off and back on again fixes the issues till my next restart. I have tested these monitors with my mac and had no issue running all three. If not then I will give Microsoft a call tomorrow in regards to my issue.
