When we bought our house last year I asked Spectrum/Charter if they could provide service. They said they would send out a surveyor to confirm, came back and yep no problem. Moved in and then was told no service, team lead for engineers came through, dropped a 400' cable and got us 1Gb internet. Alternative was satellite, AT&T can only provide 74Kb lol. Dark ages!

Cheers Arthur, and same to you (and everyone else)! Hmmm sale time, I have some $$ left in Christmas kitty...

OK setup 2nd email for this, will PM details Arjen.

I have added a couple of M.2 SSDs each in a PCI adapter, the NVME are the best but all are significantly faster than the SATA 6Gbs drives. And yes you can boot from them. Review carefully the read/write speeds and compare them, note: You will need a PCIE V3 or later for some to get full benefit.

I may not understand the issue and proposed solution(s). But our server has a ton of horse power and should be able to cope easily with the load? Is it that console/gui access is required? I for one do not have any issue with others having that access, provided suitable training is given on what not to do of course! Apologies for tardy response, work has been utterly crazy (102 hour week is my record and 25 days without a break including working on vacation!). I am now off until January 2nd though
