It is Inevitable.....
argons standard for even class C data centers

Nah....Jiff Lemon of this forum had to install a server, raid array and firebox, so I loaded it all into my Cavalier before they could say "you're supposed to be doing something else" and drove him!
A few phone calls later, some ID, proof's of who I work for etc, and Jiff guiding me.
Happened on Wed. I have driven past it every day for months not knowing it was there. It's an ex US Bank building, with laser security perimiter and 4 main power feeds from different grids in Milton Keynes.
And I am impressed! Big time
I've been carried out of a data center on a stretcher, into an ambulance with a porta heart monitor on me.
Telehouse is my favourate in the UK (but i've only been too 2 redbuds sites, telehouse and this one in manchester), they have pods (think MI5) that you get in close behind u, hurting the laptop u've got on ur back. Redbus security is a joke if anyone wants to see a datacenter grab a ladder and goto docklands
The fun thing is if they have CHM fire supression gas, if you want to know how fast your collegues can move, trigger that.

Yes, but i have a server room here with airconbut Miggy you can enjoy the air con on a hot summers day
Getting to redbus means enduring the dlr

i'm in cornwall right now, don't slag off the DLR, i've had 3 buses break down on me on just one journey, and its too far to get a taxi, and been sober is no fun
The dlr is great, appart from the smell, those poor people who live to the east, and the token chinease person you always get who stands in the doors as they try to close.

There's nothing functionaly wrong with the dlr, it works, but the trains are teeny, awkward, the stations always seem to involve several hours of walking and worst of all... if you go to the docklands on a saturday.... everythings closed.

my lab here at works got argon and theres only 2 of us who use it
hughlunnon@yahoo.com | I have sigs turned off..
Meh, I hated our old data centre. Espesh when the air-con went.But huge rows of them with immense power
I can imagine it, but to actually see one would be quite cool, with all the security and power e.t.c.
P.S. Is there a hum of fans or electrics
Seriously though - it's just a bunch of computers and an unfeasibly large amount of fans etc - if you spend too much time in one you WILL get a headache.
Last job working for a certain large company in the finance sector, the building we were in was 90% datacentre before they moved it all up north & it had loads of automated tape systems & terabytes of data being accessed 24x7
It used some high bandwidth though with four 45mbit pipes at 85% capacity....
In case of a fire, get out before the oxygen is sucked out of the room :S
We will post some pics of the HEXUS servers when we put the next load in
Getting some serious kit kicking in now
At the begining of the year i was in redbus from 8pm till 3am, didnt give me a headache
But then server noise never bothered me, i long ago learned how to "phase it out"

What sorta thing you got?We will post some pics of the HEXUS servers when we put the next load in

I must admit i'm impressed by the speed of the forums server, i've got very fed up with a certain board since they've gone commercial, 3 banner adds on the forum page, and the page been slow still pisses me off. (but please don't ever ad banner adds, i don't mind spending 2 hours solving someones problem with a PIC or something, but then for someone to make money of my donation to help someone really drives me nuts.
But anyway my question which DC is it your at?
