Opening the floodgates on missing drives
News headlines about portable storage devices going missing are as common as muck, but the problem could be even more widespread than you suspect.
October 22nd, 2008 in Data Loss by Angus Kidman Comment VoteNews headlines about portable storage devices going missing are as common as muck, but the problem could be even more widespread than you suspect.
October 22nd, 2008 in Data Loss by Angus Kidman Comment VoteIt's nice that Google says it has put an effort into making its datacentres more energy efficient, but the search giant's pledges won't mean much until it discloses just how many of the beasties it's actually running.
October 7th, 2008 in Datacentre by Angus Kidman Comment VotePronouncing that a given device doesn't need any more storage is a near-foolproof recipe for looking stupid somewhere down the line. However, I'm sceptical that many people need a 16GB mini-SD card for their phone.
September 29th, 2008 in iPhone by Angus Kidman 1 Comment VoteFaced with the thought of a USB drive, notebook PC or backup tape going missing, most IT managers look to some form of encryption as the first layer of defence. However, according to one storage security expert, that's largely a pointless exercise.
September 26th, 2008 in Archive by Angus Kidman Comment VoteThere's a standard checklist of items you'll need to include for a datacentre: raised flooring, easy access to redundant power supplies, an air conditioner the size of a small hotel room, but chances are you don't have a kitchen in there.
September 19th, 2008 in Brennan It by Angus Kidman Comment VoteIt takes a fair bit of nerve to charge anything to fix up a botched product, but Microsoft's $14.95 price to get a physical copy of Windows XP Service Pack 3 really takes some beating for sheer gall.
September 17th, 2008 in Cd by Angus Kidman Comment VoteGoogle has always enjoyed being secretive about its largely custom-built data centres, so I imagine there are a few furrowed brows following the widespread reports about its application for a patent to build offshore datacentres, which could draw their power from the ocean waves.
September 12th, 2008 in Datacentre by Angus Kidman Comment VoteIf you think two-thirds of your IT is mission-critical, you're either running an incredibly lean and efficient operation or you haven't got a clue how many applications you have and which ones you need to manage.
September 8th, 2008 in Disaster Recovery by Angus Kidman Comment VoteFor a large-scale storage project, it's not uncommon to go out to tender for the best deal — but when was the last time you had to put together a tender for a document management room?
August 21st, 2008 in Document by Angus Kidman Comment VotePeople were apparently switching their brains off before joining the 3G iPhone queues, so it's somewhat surprising that considering an appropriate amount of storage was quite a high priority for many buyers.
