    Updating to a server from Hetzner's new 2011 hardware configurations sometime this week. I expect downtime to last no longer than 1-2 hours, though I can't say for certain.

    For those who're interested:

    i7-950 @ 3.07GHz / 3.33GHz -> i7-2600 @ 3.4GHz / 3.8GHz
    12GB DDR3 1333 -> 16GB DDR3 1333
    2* 1.5TB HDDs 3GB/s -> 2* 3TB HDDs 6GB/s

    (And for those who're financially interested, it's costing me £200 Razz)

    This seems like a pretty big upgrade Very Happy

    Even thought I wouldn't know how much each of the above would effect the runnig of a minecraft server

    May get slapped for asking this, but why exactly are you upgrading? Is the chaos server's number increasing? Or is it just because? I see no major lag going on in either servers... But then again, processor/ram upgrade is a good thing. No point in the hard drive upgrades though.

    I save 20E / month in the long run once I get the setup fee covered with donations. Four runnning MC servers was also starting to cut into swap at peak times.

    (I also want to run a MW3 server come November ;p)

    Ahh. I didn't realize you were saving money. That right there is a main perk (if all the computer specs are the same).

    Remind me never to get drives over 2TB again, Linux really doesn't like them.

    If everything goes to plan we should be on the new hardware by the end of tonight.

    Until your DNS propagates (Can take upto 24 hours), please use the following IP:

    176.9.47.5

    After which you can ofcourse use orcworm.co.uk.

    Staff: Everything should be the same access wise, /ssd/minecraft moved to /opt/main, so bear that in mind.

    Basically, it's a table, but it uses letters "M" "y" "S" "Q" and "L" to hold it up, instead of wooden legs.
