RAID / storage rebuild... asking to clarify for all ;)

Hi all

I replaced the 2 Seagate drives out of my publishing video system (CS5) that has been previously configured as below and think it's the right time for clarification on some points that I never really solved after many hours of research, in order to understand where the various elements must be stored or installed on a system of six-HDD , or if someone in my situation should completely rethink the configuration of the system.

It is in the following configuration not original intent, but because of the addition of hard drives over time...

Intel RST/matrix RAID via ASUS P6T Deluxe V2...

2 x 1 TB Seagate hard drives w / 3 Partitions

C: OS & core programs in Raid1 Partition of 100 GB Matrix,

D: registered Adobe project files, etc. in 250GB RAID0 Parition

E: rendered output, etc. in the remaining Partition of RAID0 GBs

2 x 1 TB Samsung Spinpoint F3

F: scratch your files over 2 GB RAID0

2 x 1 TB Samsung Spinpoint F3

Original video G: / storage on 2GB RAID0

System hardware:

ASUS P6T Deluxe V2

I7 980

2 x 1 TB Seagate 7200 RPM hard drives (move on)

4 x 1 TB Samsung Spinpoint F3 7200 RPM hard drives

1 x Asus GTX570 Direct CU II (Exchange 2 locations, such as the 3-slot card don't snap sure due to sata port locations, etc.)

1 x GTX275 for video output extra (not really tried again 3 monitors)

24GB Corsair Vengeance RAM

power 900W

Cooler Master HAF case

Various external HDD for periodic backup via eSATA

Vista, order Windows 7 Pro

(1) assuming that the material remains 6 x 7200 RPM hard disks on a P6T Deluxe V2 (kind of want to stay on that, since just got an expensive processor lga1366), which has only 6 available SATA ports...

(a) I'm even true that the best mounting configuration for six hard drives 3 x RAID0 arrays?

b) if so, how can I distribute the following items in the 3 tables - operating system, programs, Adobe, Scratch projects, outputs, original media? I could never understand forums whose elements are the most important separate from each other on different disks.

(2) or should I really change the system to allow more than 6 hard drives at this point?

(a) now really unclear question... If I need to change, if it was an internal RAID controller card with more ports, or must it be an external configuration?

If I really need extended equipment, I'm ok with things like the purchase of hard "faster" drives (10 k or other) to replace the Seagates 2 if it is a strong recommendation, spend a little on the best RAID gear if it is actually useful, but...

1. impossible to pass a thousand for the improve only slightly

2 need a configuration that someone of experience and moderate computer skills can install and maintain.

In particular, the question of how to divide the different items / tasks on existing disks is likely to be of interest to many readers.  It is talked about a lot, but I'm really not clear on how best to distribute them and in what priority if you do not have tables for each task.

Thanks to anyone interested!

P.S. NOTICE to other fans w / my RAID setup... tries to install a great graphics card and somehow reset the BIOS in the process are what stimulated my current possible re - build.  I didn't know it has reset, start continues to find Intel RST does not, renowned readers and of course RAID0s inaccessible.  Then will come to also install RAID in invalid BIOS at the time that.  Since I'm important stuff backed up and I wanted to change on some readers anyway, don't bother to try to restore the RAID and get it back, but you could find yourself in the worst form.  Supposed to BE if you change the RAID setting before starting the operating system, your tables and Intel RST will work normally even after resetting the bios.

Do not partition disks.

C: 1 x 1 TB for OS & programs

D: 2 x 1 TB raid0 for projects & media

E: 2 x 1 TB raid0 to the pagefile, hides media and previews

F: 1 x 1 TB for exports.

    Dear Experts,

    You can create groups of ASM disks with normal or high redundancy or specify external redundancy. It depends on your reliability requirements and storage performance. Remember that ASM is not RAID and redundancy is the base file. ASM uses alternating devices. Oracle is generally recommended to have redundancy of storage. If you have RAID redundancy at the level of hardware controller or storage, Oracle recommends to configure ASM disks with external redundancy groups. Redundancy of the DSO is only between groups of disk failure and by default, each device's own failure group. Of course, you always want to make sure that you do not rely on redundancy of data between logical devices or partitions residing on a single physical unit. Compared to external RAID redundancy redundancy ASM using will give the DBA more control and transparency on the setting of the underlying.

  • For CS6, is there an easier way to redirect all my files and folders for all programs?

    Hey people adobe, Im wondering, I know you can configure each preference individually, but I want to redirect all caught space, storage of brushes and etc for all my programs in an another disc as volume change c / e /. Is there a way to do this with a program to make it easier? I don't want to accidentally delete files that are not all adobe programs.

    The reason is I don't want anything else then store programs on the SSD, and theoretically, I want the other disk, so it can run faster.

    There is no global option for this.

  • Restore will not ask for ALL my backup set.

    Had to replace a failing hard drive.  The whole process of installation and update of all my software went seamlessly.  Restore my PERSONAL files, however, has been a nightmare.

    I have a set of 3 backup disks (each successive), but has asked only the FIRST restore disc and then (VERY briefly) used the other.

    Unfortunately, not all the files that he handed in my hard drive are the latest versions, and some of my files are still missing.

    QUESTION: How can I force restore to call for ALL 3 of the consecutive backup drives before he leaves?

    I've been at this for hours, and I got it about.   GRRRR.

    Hello

    1. the restore process hang or fail?
    2. do you get an error message?

    We cannot force all disks to restore both. The backup and restore only will guide you to complete the restore process.

  • Hi, windows 7 Disk Defragmenter problems daily schedule set for all discs, never happens, it sometimes takes weeks

    Hi, windows 7 Disk Defragmenter problems daily schedule set for all discs, never happens, it sometimes takes weeks. Have a disk busy on the farm that is used for the storage of video surveillance. When I realize the performance issues, I check and find tht 'daily' Setup for MS disk defragmentation is not in fact run every day. I am watching silent movies and waiting for a 500 GB drive to effectively defragment, pass it is on average 1 percent per minute (with any other IO goes on the disc and app collection closed).

    There must be (I hope) a flag I can put to Disk Defragmenter to be more aggressive in its analysis.

    It is Windows 7 64 bit running on AMD processors, disks are sATA plugged in, although there is also a matrix RAID PCI Promise, it's usually when I started Hello I/O on the Board of 2 TB or utilization of the 'C', I realize the lack of defragmentation. I recall, before the SP1 under WIN 7, he ran on a daily basis, in fact, rather than an API algorith "guess".

    System is in place 24 x 7 (I turn off the monitor at the time of sunset), there is no "powersaver" feature used on this particular device. I edited my original question because after many years of support, I realized, by asking the initial question, that I was not providing information that I would be asked a customer, if I was still doing this job.

    Kind regards

    Lorin Boyack

    Hello Lorin,

    There are several reasons why the built-in Defragmenter may not work correctly:

    Method 1: He is also a malware on the system. Solution: Run an anti-virus control and also a spyware check.

    I suggest you scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software.

    The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

     

    Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

    Important: During the scan of the hard drive if bad sectors are found, the scanner tries to repair this sector, all available on which data may be lost.

    Method 2: The disk is too full (you need at least 15% free space, sometimes 20%). Solution: Delete files unnecessary and programs until you have more than 20% free space.

    Delete files using disk cleanup

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/delete-files-using-disk-cleanup

    Method 3: The disc is damaged and must be repaired. Solution:

    a. open "Computer" and right-click on the drive that you want to disable frag.

    b. Select 'Properties' and click on 'tools '.

    c. Select "Check now" to check the drive for errors.

    d. Select the two options and click on 'start '.

    Check your hard drive for errors

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/check-your-hard-disk-for-errors

     

    Important: While running chkdsk (check disk) hard disk, if bad sectors are found on the hard drive when chkdsk attempts to repair this sector, the data available in this area may be lost, and it is not recoverable.

    (This can take time and can restart the PC so that it can do the check at boot time. Be patient and let it complete).

    Method 4: Disk Defragmenter may be corrupted, requiring a system restore to fix.

    System restore

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/products/features/system-restore

     

    NOTE: When you use system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, the programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

    Method 5: There are other programs that are running this interruption, the built-in Defragmenter. Solution:

    a. close all running programs.

    b. If you think there may be some programs that run in the background.

    c. press Ctrl + Alt + Delete and

    d. Select "start Task Manager".

    e. under the 'Applications' tab, you will find a list of all running applications - you can close these by selecting "end task."

  • Stop asking save passwords for NEW sites, still keep filling passwords for sites ALREADY SAVED

    So here's my problem. I have a handful of site where I leave FF save/fill in my password and user name information. For these sites, I WANT FF for save and continue to fill my login information. However, I do not want FF to save my credentials for ANY OTHER SITE.

    Now while I have my login information stored in FF for these websites, if I disable "Remember passwords for sites" in Security Options, FF continues to fill my login information for these sites (despite the fact that it has always recorded info). Once I re - check this option, FF starts to fill in my password again.

    AFAIK, disabling of "do not forget passwords for sites" is the only way to get FF to stop asking me if I want to have save my password, but if I do that it will also stop filling the passwords that I've saved.

    So, is there a way either:
    (A) have "Passwords sites Remember" disabled, but that FF inserts passwords I already saved it, or
    (B) have 'passwords to Remember sites"enabled, but STOP asking me to save passwords for all new Web sites?

    I want to ONLY FF to register AND fill the passwords that I've saved. I don't want to be prompted to save passwords for all new sites either.

    Is this possible? Maybe an add-on or about: config setting I could change?

  • How to get an extension of the dictionary for all users in a Citrix environment?

    Hi all

    Under title, I'm looking for a way to get out a dictionary of Firefox (specifically the English (British) of https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/language-tools/) to all users in a Citrix environment. Comprehensive silent installation is absolutely best. Because following a recent installation of Firefox users report that this spell check is not working, what appears as a result there is no dictionary to check the spelling on the facility.

    It's in a corporate environment, running 6.5 XenApp hosted workstations to multi-server Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise x 64, the installed Firefox info below as collected by the add-on troubleshooting pulled from the browser in the test environment with the same characteristics.

    So far, I have tried what follows from this link: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Installing_extensions

    "A whole installation will install an extension in the directory of the application rather than in a profile so it will be available to all users. To perform a whole installation, you must not activate as within your Mozilla application installation file. Instead, download and save this record and make sure you close the application completely.

    Then follow one of the following options:

       Copy the .xpi file into the <installation directory>\extensions folder. When you start your Mozilla application again, it displays an installation dialog, asking "The following items were found in your Extensions folder. Do you want to install them?" "
    

    Although it seems that the < installation directory > \extensions folder no longer exists at the given location. Find a path of the < installation directory > \browser\extensions but seems it does not behave as said here that I have not received all of the guests. I hope that this method is still applicable in some way and I am just not aware of how this is currently supposed to be handled, but not sure if it is a dictionary rather than a typical add-on will have no effect on the installation overall how can be reached.

    Have also tried to http://forums.anandtech.com/showthread.php?t=2268437 , which seems a pretty basic option, but this would have not only to a lot of work to do on a per user basis, but there are also restrictions in place to prevent access to the records of users AppData.

    Finally I was looking https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/740545 to push this point across: the les parametres parameters configuration, then use the method above to enforce this on the user end, but did not find anything me.

    Any help/advice/shots of elbow in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

    It might be easier to extract the files of two dictionary (.dic and .aff) of archive XPI (ZIP) and place the two files in the folder of Firefox profile for the dictionaries available for all users.

  • Storage of certain values, but not all

    Hi all

    I had trouble putting implement this: store a few values of some iterations of the loop as reference and use the reference to subtract any new value produced of the iterations of the loop later.

    For example:

    My sensor generates a table (size: 768) by timed loop iteration.

    I want to generate an array of background reference to iteration to iteration #220 #201. Currently I use the stacked shift (shift 20 saved stack) register to store the array generated by my sensor. The final basic table is averaged over 20 registees shift tables:

    Background reference table = (array array 1 + 2 +.. .array 20) / 20

    I want to remove this reference table background of table all collected subsequently the.

    new table - (table table 1 + 2 +.. .array 20) / 20

    The new table can by any array to a later iteration of the timed loop (#221 or beyond).

    In other words, I can't generate a table of fixed reference to normalize the data in real time, I've gotten. And the fixed reference table is harvested in the same channel that data in real time.

    How can I do this? (I tried the case structure over the stacked shift register, but it does not work...)

    Thank you!

    What you want to do is not clear.  Tell me if that's what you want to do:

    • Each iteration, get 768 points in a table "sample".
    • Throw sample 1 to 200 bays.
    • Calculate the average of berries sample of 201 to 220.  Call this average table of sample.
    • For all the "future" sample bays (what you want), record the Array - table of average sample sample.

    Is this correct?  If so, your algorithm can be expressed as a loop While (each loop Gets the data in a table in the sample) within which there is a Case statement to which is connected the index of the loop ('i').  If you increment 'i' before you wire this switch of case, the entries of your case will vary from 1... However, many samples you take, what makes easier "metering".

    Create the following cases:

    • .. 200 (which means that it is<= 200).=""  this="" is="" the="" "do="" nothing"="" case="" where="" you="" throw="" the="" data="">
    • 201, 219. It's "amounts Accumulate in the bays of the sample in a shift (initialization of the registry to an empty array) register.
    • 220 add the final sample, divide by 20 and save (in the same shift register) as average sample table.
    • 221... take your sample matrix, subtract table of average sample (of the shift register) and do what you want to do with your referenced sample.

    If it's your algorithm, it is very simple to implement (as you can see).  If you want to do something else, you will need to tell us specifically what you want to do, but maybe with the description I provided only, you might be able to understand for yourself how vary the algorithm.  If you're still stuck, clarify what you have tried (this is very useful if you attach your code, which means a VI (not an image, please, if this is an 'executable image', as will us want to try it and it ourselves).)  Among other things, the ambiguity in the description of Word of the algorithms are usually easier to understand by looking at the code.
