The Dell T30 is an entry-level server, and it is currently available very inexpensively (I just bought a refurbished one for $249.) I’m writing this to better explain to potential buyers what this server is, and what it is not. It’s a decent little machine, but it’s not suited for every role.
These are straight off the camera and unedited. Let me know which ones you like and I’ll get you larger images that’ve been tweaked a bit.
We are giving away one set of Etymotic GunSport-Pro electronic earplugs. Entry is free to all users – as with all giveaways on THR it is up to the participant to insure that the product is legal in his or her area, though I’m not aware of any restrictions on hearing protection.
I had a friend who bought a generator because the hurricane was coming to town and one was available, and had no idea what to do with it. My goal with this article is to tell him what I wish I’d known a year ago, before Matthew killed my power for a week.

Qnap offers a confusing number of products in the NAS space – seventy-nine at the time this is being written. When shopping for a NAS unit I bought one on faith as there was really very little information online (especially compared to Synology – the main competitor in the home/SMB NAS space) and overall I’d say I made a good choice.
