Great job done! Dreamhost is the best hosting you can find!

This may sound as spam, but please buy netapp appliances… the cheapest model (fas720?) may not be much more expensive than a server with a JBOD, and in my experience will run much more reliably than that.

I’m one of the last two and I have ~100GB - not counting backups. Guess it’s karma that I’m at the end…

111GB is a lot indeed… one thing to keep in mind is that backups are automatically made of everything (from ssh, do cd .snapshot to see them). It’s 6 backups (2x hourly, daily, weekly) so if the backups are restored immediately as well (although it’d make more sense to do everyone’s “current” snapshot, then phase in the rest of them as time permits) then it could be that each user 111GB/6 on average. 20 GB sounds more reasonable, although it’s certainly a lot… I’m using less than 1…

Could we request an e-mail notification when the site goes down? For those of us whose sites run on autopilot we may not oterwise know when service is interrupted.
