Audio Portal Upgrades

[Tim]

As of right now, the Audio Portal has under 1GB of space left for uploads. The good news is, we saw this coming and have already ordered the hardware necessary to complete the upgrade. The bad news is that I'll have to take the site down for a while to install the new drives. I hope to get down to the datacenter by 8am Monday morning to get things started and the target is for the entire process to take 2-3 hours. Sorry in advance for the downtime and I'll be sure to post something after the site is back up.

Oh, and mad props to all the mods who came to Philly this weekend. As promised, my front-page posting icon has been changed :)

Thanks for the warning, I figured that eventually space may be an issue for the audio portal.

Thanks for the heads up Tim.
I don't know why, but I always assumed that the Flash and Audio Portal all were on the same server space. Obviously I was wrong.

Thats my usual time of the day to be online, so hopefully it doesn't take longer than expected.

A couple of hours isn't bad at all, I think it'd be good for some of these people to have some time to go outside and play, instead of letting their brains rot all day in front of the computer.

Thanks once again for the sweet hotel rooms, that was awesome of you guys. It was great to meet you.

I woke up in a cold sweat, and Tim rolled over and kissed my cheek.

I knew things were ok, so I went back to sleep.

Oh that's not too bad. I like in California so it should be done when I wake up. So around 11 a.m. there would be like 8 o clock here.

Yeah I noticed.

[KupaMan]

Cool. I'll be in Disneyland all next week so hopefully everything will be fixed and new when I get back.

[ArabFreak]

I like your old icon better.

[BananaBreadMuffin]

Tim, you should really slow down your posts. Your post per day average is immense.

[Steve84]
