The KCLUG's server is in the process of losing its hard drive. Friday night, the faulty drive will be replaced.

We are all lucky in that this was caught early enough, no data will be lost.

To reduce our risk of next times failure, we would like to raise enough funds ($275) to purchase at least a 2 port 3ware controller, and a couple sata drives (>= 80's) for mirroring.

Also, the server has 512mb's of ram. While this has been plenty, anyone with spare pc133 registered sdram, would not be turned down :)

I'd like to do this sometime next month, hopefully giving anyone who can, enough time to budget some monies.

I'll start by throwing in $50.

Thanks,
