@ARikozuM For HDD's it can handle only one then right? as there is only 1 position the dial can be in while m.2 is flash so it can flash all of its pcb's at once right?

Hello All! I currently run a server and have been interested in getting a server box for it, though I'm currently wondering what i should do regarding storage. I heard that HDD's can only handle 1 task at a time which is a huge bottleneck for multiple servers, can other sorts of drives (NVMe, M.2, Sata III) handle multiple tasks at once? Thanks -Modern_Mo

upload will definitely be sufficient, currently horrible for server"S" (Plural) but will be upgraded if i do get this and expand

@owluitar How old are these G7's? The CPU and the box itself is both retired... Is it anything i can trust refurbished? Also, what CPU's would i replace it with? This is what I made up.

Anything over $100 I don't really want to do as it is a lot of money to invest into a 1 month hosting thing and I don't have physical access to the server which I don't really like... I currently also have a Static ip too, and i like having it also as it makes me feel more in control.

Hello All! I currently run a game server for the game Unturned and I'm also looking to expand to Arma 3 too with other server in the near future. I'm looking for your help on what I should buy that would allow me to be able to get the specs needed to host these servers. I have a budget of 1000 - 1750 and I'd like the server to last me at least 3 years with about 4 severs running on it. I already have 4 sata 3 HDD's that I would put in, having a SSD for boot would be nice too. I also have alot of experience with building computers so either building it myself or buying a prebuilt is good for me. I prefer a version of win10 or windows server 2016+. Thanks -Modern_Mo

Hi, 8 Gb of ram would be enough still too, so 12 Gb is just fine, Your i5 is fine, i reccomend overclocking it though. If your buying new, try and upgrade that cpu....

Normally i do, though sometimes its not enough, only 5 gb...

It is not to do things i shouldn't do, it is to protect my passwords and allow me to deal with my server i run on my breaks....

Hello All! Currently my school block all kinds of websites, even Reddit and Discord! They block anything that can allow you to get around the block and any websites that involve things like VPN's, Proxies and a lot of tech related things... How could they! Therefor they block the vast majority of VPN's, though I've only tried a few proxies that seem to be blocked too. Currently I've been doing this on my chrome book, but soon (within a month) I'm going to be getting a semi-gaming laptop (win 10) Anyone have any ideas on how I can get around these blocks? Main priority is getting through to Discord... Thanks -Modern_Mo
