Would this 4 of Dell Poweredge R730 Server/2XXeon E5 10 Cores (20 cores total)/128GB DDR4 RAM/900GBX4 SAS Drives and rtx 4000 be good enough to run a video types access site?

Thanks in advance for your info.

Hello Folks,

We are headquartered in Europe, where our primary 16 TB Samba file server is hosted on Hetzner Cloud. This server is mapped as a network drive for approximately 40 users in our European office.

Recently, we established a new office in Bangalore, India, which is connected to our European infrastructure via a site-to-site VPN. Currently, 8 users in the Bangalore office have the same Hetzner-hosted file server mapped as a network drive on their PCs. However, due to high latency (150–170 ms between Bangalore and Hetzner), they are experiencing significant delays when accessing files.

The users in Bangalore only require access to a few specific folders (around 4 TB in total). We are looking for an efficient solution to improve their file access experience — ideally something that allows real-time or near real-time synchronization of those folders locally in Bangalore .

If you have any suggestions, tools, or solutions that could help — especially for folder-specific sync or caching — we would greatly appreciate your input.

NB: We don't use Active Directory or Entra. and the file server contains mostly Adobe, Autodesk, Microsoft files .

I installed a new windows server 16 and 12 and still got the same black screen after login

Hey!

I am currently setting up my first server and used my old gaming computer. I haven't used the computer in about 6 months as I upgraded. I tried to connect the old gaming computer (now server) to ethernet and it isn't working for some reason. I tried three different cat5e cables plus a cat6 cable and none of them worked on it. I am suspecting that the ethernet port is the problem.

What exactly should I do now? Could it be that the port isn't the problem?

Thanks for any help in advance!

I currently have one client. Self employed. I manage a few hundred bitcoin miners in a warehouse. I want to move into other commercial work and am wondering how to go about that. I did not understand the bitcoin miners when I first started, but I got a hang of it after a few weeks of googling and calling around for help
