    HEXUS.snapshot :: Armari Gravistar XRS

    If you had around £6000 (USD$10,600, CAD$12,500, €8,900 or about 28,300 Eastern Caribbean Dollars) right now, what would you spend it on? Think long and hard before carrying on reading.

    PHP Code:
    $s = new signature();
    $s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();

    Unfortunately the Gravistar XRS is incompatible with both applications, as it exceeds the maximum system requirements.

    I've got an armari system here its very good, only thing i'll say with a beast of a system like that WHY OH WHY use sata?

    I'd expect whatever sata raid controller is running all that would die massively if you where pushing that system with some database or high end graphics work....

    You really wouldn't, since it's not doing disk I/O with massive queue depth given that it's a 3D workstation.
