## Overview
|
||
|
|
We need to bulk up our storage options for both our vm host and our backup servers.
|
||
|
|
To do this we are looking at €2800 in hardware acquisition, mostly HDD's.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We got €700 in sponsorship from NetApp with the remaining €2100 from teh C&S Strategic fund.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Rough plan is to have the event where we build the servers (maybe pizza as well for everyone not directly involved?), get them up and running, then at 20:00 head to Scholars for pints.

|
### Long term
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Advantage of these upgrades is stability in our hardware, will make it much harder to loose data.
|
||
|
|
Secondly it also gives us opportunities to train people in enterprise grate tech/tools that they would be hard pressed to do on their own.
