VMware peeps.

I have a two node cluster, each node is running a HP VSA to act as my shared storage device. TBH they work great however it grinds on my to think they both need 4GB RAM each which is bad when my hosts only have 8GB of RAM.

What storage appliances are you using and recommend?

Should I chase up my £100 cash back? I ordered a N54L on 18-6-13 and sent the form out about a week later and not heard anything so far, not even confirmation.

I got mine on the last day of the quoted time-frame in the offer, think they said within 40 days I think for the N40L. There was an email you could contact, forgot what it is now though.

45 days from the confirmation date. The email address to chase a few posts up (or on the previous page as this post is on a new page)

45th day after I received my claim confirmation and the cheque turns up!

Can anyone confirm whether 4TB drives work or don't in the Microserver? I'm running out of space and I can see 3TB being eaten up pretty quickly if I upgrade from 2TB.

My cheque also showed up yesterday!

I'll be getting mine the next couple of days. Very excited to set things up.

Is there only the cashback offer for the G8 going on at the moment?

Even with the £109 off it still comes in being very pricy

Wish there was something for the N40L/N54L still

The offers that are available are listed on HP's 'focus offers' website. The offers do change fairly regularly, but I can't see them bringing anything back for the old G7 model.

I am running 4 x 4TB Seagates in my Microserver and I have no issues. BIOS detects the drives as 180GB or so but in windows detects the full 4TB no problem.
