Seems like a decent deal

Now that pricing is similar, which provider are you choosing? Pros and Cons?

rebranded Synology DS713+

RAID 0 or RAID 1? Is all the cabling good? Switches? Gigabyte Ethernet I assume?

@mike-davis Did you test speeds directly from the Unifi switch?

@nerdydad said in Need a host recommendation:

I'm looking at Dell's R630's

We are happy with them

@nerdydad We run our production hosts 3 years, then they become a backup host for another 3 years.

After 6 years the server is retired. Our backup hosts have replicates of the VM's on the production host.

I want to be able to manage both locations from one vCenter.

I am assuming this means new licensing? Will it be costly?

@JaredBusch Do you have a guide for this using Let's Encrypt?

@dafyre

Seems too.

No way to add/remove/change networks on a VM

Also, no way to set a VM to Autostart
