■ FEATURING 45DRIVES ————————

High availability, clustered storage solutions, and Ceph storage; however we phrase it — it's a hot topic in the storage world.

So, yesterday Brett Kelly, our Lead Engineer and Mitch Hall, one of our Senior Storage Architects, joined Tom Lawrence from Lawrence Systems on his podcast, The HomeLab Show to talk about Ceph Storage.

Click on the link below to listen and learn some great little tips, tricks, and great information on this amazing software from the storage experts!

■ Let's Talk About Hard Drives ————————

Did you know?

If you purchased hard drives from us, we will take care of the return merchandise authorization (RMA) process.

Life gets busy. Tedious tasks like contacting your drive supplier, filling out a return form, shipping out the drive, and waiting for them to receive your damaged drive before shipping the new one out — are very time-consuming and frustrating.

So, we simplified the process for our customers and offer up to 5 years of advanced replacement warranty on all Seagate hard drives we sell.

Have a drive failure? No problem, notify us of a bad disk with its serial number, and we will have one sent to you immediately. We will also assist you with returning your defective drive to your supplier.

Have a drive you need replaced? Let us know! Or, if you have questions about our advanced replacement warranty, reach out to us!

■ WHILE QUANTITIES LAST ————————

Need to populate your server? You couldn't have picked a better time!

We have a limited number of 14TB drives left at this price! That's 14TB of storage for the price of 10TB!

These Seagate 14TB Exos Enterprise drives are great for the most demanding data environments. From entry-level servers to high-end enterprise storage systems, they also offer the highest reliability, durability, capacity, power efficiency and performance for many data center-specific applications.

Seagate Exos™ Hard Drives perfectly match Storinator's ultra-fast, reliable, high-performance features.

■ HELPFUL VIDEOS ————————————

Transporting Hard Drives

Watching someone move a storage server with hard drives still installed is terrifying. With so many things that can go wrong, not to mention how heavy servers can get — we strongly suggest avoiding doing this.

Still not convinced? Watch this video as Archie gives you all the reasons why!

■ POPULAR ARTICLES ———————————

While consumer drives can be a quieter, lower-cost option, they are better suited for desktops and laptops and some lower-cost workstations.

But, when you need reliability and high performance at a larger capacity - enterprise drives are the key!

Check out this article to find out why we suggest enterprise hard drives and their benefits.
