Country: USA Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Home NAS, remote storage Other details: Dell PowerEdge T710 (2 Xeon E56**, 12 GB RAM), Dell Perc 6/i (included in the T710), and a scattering of older hard drives. So here is the situation... I got a Dell PowerEdge T710 from an old job, no drives but all the rest of the hardware (listed above, will go into more detail if needed). Turns out that model, or at least the one I got, has a Perc 6/i RAID card. That means I can do RAID 0 - 10, with 8 available (of which I have 6 sleds) drive bays. Downside is, there is no drive pass through. I had planned on using unRAID, but that will require setting each drive up as a RAID 0 virtual drive (VD). And I don't know if that will have any down stream effects, if a drive fails or I look to expand later on. Now the question. What are your recommendations to proceed? As I see it; I can set up the VDs and use unRAID, or I could set up an actual RAID array. If I proceed with the array, should I go 5 or 6? And what OS should I use?

I understand the rule. But, this was not intended to be news. I was attempting to notify other PIA users of the potential issues that might arise. This was posted in the Network forum, and not tagged as news. If it has been cross posted, that was not done by me.

I would have to image that was the case. But, the connections from different areas makes me think two things 1. Amazon is attempting blocking PIA, but is missing some requests. or A. There are bad actors using PIA hardware or service, and Amazon has blocked the hardware those bad actors are on.

Incognito appears to have the same issue. Some connection servers are now coming up correctly, in both standard and incognito modes.

Amazon appears to be blocking PIA's US connection locations. I am receiving an "your connection was interrupted" or "this site can not be reached" errors. Edit: For clarification this is on the main site, and not just Amazon Video. And swapping to another country will allow access as normal. I will preface, I have only been using PIA for roughly 7 months. So I am not familiar if this is a common issue or something recent. I am also new to the forum, but have been watching for years. Please let me know if I am not following any of the rules of posting.
