OK, our server crashed last Friday during a power outage. We could not get it up and running so took it to Big Box which is one of two places in my area that does computer consulting. They could not get it up and running either. They said they need to send it off to see if someone can save our data.
Two problems with this-
1. We learned that our server is only equiped for 4 drives, and actually only has three. The really sad part is, the operating system and all the data are on one drive and nothing is on the other two drives according to Big Box.
2. We had been asking them for information about purchasing servers.
Should we believe them that there really is the problem they say? Could it be that they only want to speed up the sale of a server?
