Hey! Thanks for the reply! It definitely helps! I am however concerned about what you said about servers, that it can be finicky. I am planning to use LACP on a mission critical small business server. We cannot afford to have a downtime. Is LACP a good choice? In that case?

Hey guys, So I am planning to use LACP on my servers, but I'm a bit confused as to how LACP or ethernet bonding works. 1. Are the connections bonded, between two machines, or between a server and a switch? 2. What if a non-LACP machine wants to connect to a LACP bonded connection? Will it have reduced speed, or no connection at all? 3. So if I have a LACP bonded link with 2 connections bonded together(1 Gigabit each) and if 2 separate machines(Also 1 Gb each) try to download data from the server, will the bandwidth be shared between the two separate clients? (So, basically, its a 2:1 connection) (Also assuming the server can saturate the effectively 2Gbit link) 4. If anyone has used this, let me know any other nuances or /things/ that I need to know before jumping on LACP. My use case is for performance improvement(No redundancy etc) Thanks!

So even if I buy an enterprise SSD, of the exact same model, they will be same? I'm going for this one, specifically. It says, Mixed Usage. https://www.serversdirect.co.uk/p/1143778/hp-800gb-6g-sata-mu-2-lff-scc-ssd Even though Enterprise SSDs are designed for longer lifespan, I am still a bit skeptical on the reliability. What other options do I have, if I have to backup the SSD?

Hello, I'm looking to understand how reliable are SSD, with write heavy database operations. I understand that usually they fail suddenly and without warning, taking down the entire system. I have considered RAID, but SSD+HDD logically does not make sense since speed will be slower of the two RAID 1(SSD+SSD) is also out of the picture, since both drives will fail at the same time. I do not want more than two SSD drives, since cost will be significantly higher(I'm planning to buy HP enterprise SSD) What are my options, in such a case? How do I ensure reliability of the database? Thanks!

Hi! So I'm looking to setup a windows server machine(a rack server), for remote desktop usage, what should be the recommended configuration, for 30-40 users accessing concurrently? Also any tips and best practices around this will appreciated! Thanks!

Thank you! Hope that it works! I saw some reviews on amazon that the ram wasn't compatible with a few intel motherboards, so just wished to check

Okay, I checked the Qualified Parts List from Asus website, the ram isnt present. However I am able to select it on PCPartsPicker. Is PCPartsPicker a reliable source?

Hello, I wish to know if, Asus B360 Prime https://www.amazon.in/gp/product/B07BRKN7L6/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Supports this RAM: https://www.amazon.in/Corsair-Vengeance-2400MHz-Chipset-CMK8GX4M1A2400C16R/dp/B01ARHCZYO/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8
