DISboards are upgrading. Official Geek Notice
For you geeks out there:
From Webmaster Alex:
The DIsboards have signed a purchase contract for a NEW server for the boards. This will replace our current web server and should speed things up CONSIDERABLY!
GEEK WARNING!!!!!!!!! Do not read past this point if you can't handle extreme geekiness
Old Server- Dual Xeon 3.06 533 FSB with 3 gigs of ram and 2 18 gig SCSI drives (no raid)
New Server- 2 Dual Core 5160 Intel 3.0 Xeon's with a 1333 FSB, 4 Gigs of Ram and 2 36 SAS drives (raid 1) running 64 Bit Red Hat Linux ES
End of GEEK WARNING
In layman't terms: That's enough extra horsepower to make a bit of a difference!
