6 TB Christmas gift!

Hardware

WD6TBOrdered a SIX Terabyte HDD. Seems I have 3 of the 1TB Seagate models that are having issues (or will have issues). So best to migrate all that is on them to this 6TB model. @ $289, its a bargain! I mean I paid $300 for one of the Seagate 1TB when I first bought one.

Hopefully Newegg shipping won’t have it damaged. They tend to ship bar drives in a cheap bubble wrap rather than double box. I will update here when I get with pics and how the transfer goes.

 

Yahoo screwed up my blog!

Uncategorized

Newsflash! Macanix domain is moving! Email may not be working. Until then:

  • -Yahoo moving small biz websites to Aabaco. (Alibaba stake from Yahoo)
  • -Aabaco has poor support and my site had vulnerable WP for a month. Over 30 min MINIMUM hold time. Unacceptable.
  • -In the meantime. … migration to new host successful!
  • -Yahoo’s switch to Aabaco  damaged my database (WordPress PHP).  I happended to find this out by accident. Lesson: export database and backup regularly!
  • Finally sent email to someone and they were able to cancel my Yahoo/Lumina/Aabaco acct.
  • Now hosted with inMotion…so far very good support.
