Hi, still here lol.
sorry i have been MIA for the past 2 weeks. i've been "borrowing" movies to
put on my plex server lol.

ya the original server i was running proxmox / mystic BBS on, was a Dell
R710. However when i bought the upgrade drives 8tb a peice, i found that the
raid card doesnt read any disk above 4tb. i think it even limits the raid to
4 tb... if i am not mistaken.
that was really disapointing to say the least. however, i put all the drives
in my old 8 core mac pro. i threw proxmox on it and ubuntu VMs. 
it seems to be running fine now.
however i do wish i could stil use the Dell server as it has 120gigs of ram
in it, my mac pro only has 32 gigs....
