Anybody using the Buffalo Terastation (or similar)?

Is anybody using the Buffalo Terastation as a NAS or Backup drive?
I'm looking into getting some external RAID storage for backups and such, and the Terastation looks really good and you can't beat the price.
The biggest problem I see is that apparently the Terastatio is only accessible as a windows share or an ftp server which wouldn't work for backups.
If I wanted to use Retrospect to do my backups I could only create backup jobs up to 2Gb only. If I wanted to use another backup software (SilverKeep, for example) all ownership and security permissions would get lost.
So, is anybody using the Terastation successfully, or is there an alternative out there with similar characteristics and price?
Thanks for your help,
Julian

I've been in no hurry because I had already invested in a number of externals for alternating cloning, but I've been seriously considering this alternate approach for the next hardware go-around.
I'd be very interested in whatever you end up doing and how it works out. If this thread is too old by then, see the article in my sig for a contact.

  • Has anybody used the transaction RSUOM in 2004s?

    Hello
    Has anybody used the transaction RSUOM in 2004s?
    Documentation found on help.sap.com states that this transaction can help dealing with alternate unit of measure conversion ("equivalent to currency conversion")
    I have created a quantity conversion type in RSUOM but I have not found how to use it - is it in the update rules or the Bex or somewhere else.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks
    Ioan

    Hello Ioan,
    this functionality corresponds to currency conversion (and is implemented with a similar concept "conversion type"). Both unit conversions within one dimension (e.g. kg -> g) and e.g. material dependent conversions (e.g. kg -> palettes) are supported.
    Currently the conversion can be used within the new transformations and within a planning function. Interactive conversion in query/Bex is not yet supported.

  • Has anybody used the microsoft JDBC 2.0 driver for sql server 2000?

    Hi,
    Has anybody used the JDBC 2.0 driver for sql server 2000 downloadable from the
    microsoft website?When I try using it with WL 6.1 sp1 it says it can't load the
    driver.I try viewing the class file from the jar file using the jar utility it
    gives an unknown Zip format error.Anybody has any solution for this ?If anybody
    has managed to work with this microsoft driver i will be grateful if they provide
    me with a solution.
    Thanks
    Thomas

    Hello Thomas,
    You may want to download the driver again and install it again.
    heres a sample xml tag in the config.xml:
    <JDBCConnectionPool
    DriverName="com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver"
    InitialCapacity="3" MaxCapacity="12" Name="MSpool"
    Password="{3DES}fUz1bxR0zDg=" Properties="user=uid"
    Targets="myserver"
    URL="jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://mydbserver:1433"/>
    ensure that you follow the instructions from Microsoft. For using 2000
    driver you will need to have
    Install_dir/lib/msbase.jar and Install_dir/lib/msutil.jar in addition to
    Install_dir/lib/mssqlserver.jar in the CLASSPATH.

    I'm using a 5D with a G5 and having nothing but problems. I have aperture installed on my Powerbook and don't have any problems. Upload fine and everything. But as soon as i try and upload photos on my G5 it's terrible. They preview fine before import.
    but afterwards they're corrupt.

  • Has anybody used the Camera RAW filter on an OpenEXR, HDR or similar floating point color image?

    I often work on floating point images rendered out of 3ds Max, specifically OpenEXRs, and I have been lately using the Camera RAW filter to do some image adjustments. There is one problem though, the float image does not load correctly into Camera RAW. It looks slightly over-exposed when loaded and it is nearly impossible to get it back to "scratch". Is Camera RAW not fully float capable? Camera RAW is a drunkard compositor's dream when doing color corrections on a floating point image, especially an image rendered out of a 3D application such as 3ds Max or Maya. Any thoughts?

    For what it's worth I have seen this going back a loooong time.  I've posted on the subject as well and have never gotten a solid answer.  It just appears as though Photoshop considers it "already open, so no need to open it twice".  I believe an uninitialized variable could be involved, since it's intermittent.
    I have found a couple of choices for workarounds or workflow changes...
    1.  You can save the first-opened document opened (e.g., as  a .PSD) somewhere.  Then reopening the raw file will always open a second document.
    2.  You could consider opening the raw file just once, duplicating it as a second layer, then use Camera Raw as a filter.  Obviously that doesn't avail Camera Raw of the raw data, but its usefulness depends on what you're trying to accomplish.

  • ANYBODY used the Currrency Conversion / Translation Rules Table yet???  Thx

    hi guys,
    we are working on the BUSINESS RULE: CURRENCY CONVERSION TABLE.
    here we have a easy three row table:
    Account Rate Type: AVG; Formula: [AVG]
    Account Rate Type: END; Formula: [END]
    Line 3: Account Rate Type: TRANS: Destination Account: XYZ;  >> Formula:[END]-[AVG]
    this works fine and great!!!!! differences within accounts of AVG and accounts of END between AVG to END rate are being posted in Account XYZ.
    here the is the requirement we trying to establish:
    for Line 3: using the AVG (of ACTUALS) and the AVG (of BUDGET) ... so different VERSIONS of the SAME ACCOUNT_1. We like to have the same differences (but differen versions) posted to XYZ account.
    what calculation do i put in the Formula field in the chart???
    anybody done this? got an idea? -
    thanks a lot, max  (BPC 7.0 NW)

    Thanks Ethans that was good explanation. So, we stayed within the version and the calculation worked fine. However, now I am wondering about the following:
    We take the [END]-[AVG] and we get the wanted result. let's say 1.5 - 1.3 = 0.2 ... So desitnation account will post 0.2. - Correct!
    Now if i run Currency Conversion / FX Trans again. it again takes 1.5 - 1.3 = 0.2 and it adds this 0.2 to the already noted 0.2 in the account = 0.4 in total. Run CC again an addiotional difference of 0.2 to the already there 0.4 which equals 0.6 total; and so on. It is adding on top what has been posted, not continiously just showing the difference in accounts.
    How do i modify that it is NOT adding, but everytime ONLY finding the difference?
    Thanks a lot, Max
    PS: Also I am wondering if anybody has detailed information on the Business Rule Table for Currency Conversion. - The BPC NW Help is rather light on the TABLE information.

  • Has anybody used the WInterface for "on top" functionality successfully?

    Dear Everyone,
    This is a question for anybody who has used the WInterface classes and .dll file. I have downloaded the WInterface.zip file and have extracted it. I have also used the provided classes (particularly WInterface.java) and placed the .dll on the "java.library.path".
    As my path points at C:\j2sdk1.4.0\bin I placed the .dll file into this ...\bin directory. However I have not gained success with any attempts to use these classes. Programs compile fine, however when any attempt is made to refer to the methods in the WInterface an exception is raised.
    The type of exception is UnsatisfiedLinkException. I know this to mean that the JVM cannot find the .dll (in this case) being refered to. However I am sure that the file is in a directory on the class path.
    Somebody out there, amongst you guys, knows how to use the WInterface.
    If you are that somebody please explain to me how you achieved the "always on top" functionality that WInterface provides.
    Any help will be really appreciated. Thanks

    Sorry to bump this old post, but I have the same problem. Can someone show me a simple example of how to use WInterface from including it, to compiling it, and executing it?
    Thanks
    Jon

    I just confirmed it is a bug in Visual Studio 2013.  Using Visual Studio 2010 (VS10) I have no problems creating a database.  The workaround in VS 2013 is to create a database in VS10, store it on localhost, import it into your Solution using
    SQL Server Explorer in Visual Studio 2013, then you can create an Entity Data (ADO.NET / EF) that connects to the database.  But even this step is a bit of a problem, in that you must first create an empty Entity Data, then populate it by connecting to
    an existing database, which would be the database you imported from VS10.  If you try and connect the Entity Data directly to the database using the Entity Data Model Wizard, nothing seems to happen.  So first create an Entity Data model (empty),
    then connect it to the database you have created with a New Connection using the built in Visual Studio 2013 SQL Server manager.

  • Anybody using the Windows 8 Start screen?

    My original question was: Can we place bundle icons on the Windows 8 Start screen, alongside those "Modern/Metro" Windows apps?
    But then I figured I should back up and ask whether anyone with a large ZCM deployment is even presenting the new Windows 8 Start screen to their users.
    If you've deployed Windows 8, I'd love to hear your feedback.

    I have test units that I am working with. I have had none of my current Start Menu apps showing up. This has been a minor item on my list of things to work with so I haven't investigated possible causes or if this is even supported. Honestly in my environment I would love to be able to push the older start menu/Desktop style and skip Metro. My teachers are going to freak when they start to use this new style. I had a hard time with the Windows 7 changes with some of the staff. My staff has a real hard time with change so Windows 8 is going to be a hard sell.
    What type of devices are you looking at for Windows 8? I have been looking at whether I need to be looking for touch based Laptops or move to a more Tablet with a keyboard type environment.

  • Anybody used the Rand McNally GPS app on an iPad mini?

    I cannot pick up the GPS signal from a Dual GPS device onto the app.

    Ask your friend to remove the credit card from his iTunes account and then add it to your payment details. I'm curious as to how someone else can use a credit card that is registered to somebody else in the first place.

  • Has anybody used the program "clean your mac"

    I was wondering if programs like this were necessary and what suggestions others may have instead to keep it free from unwanted 'stuff'

    In my testing of the so called "cleanup" applications, I found them to be either worthless or dangerous.
    Hence the reason I recommend against installing any of them.

  • Using a Buffalo Linkstation NAS drive on the Airport Extreme 802.11n

    I used the Buffalo Linkstation NAS drive on the previous Airport Extreme. I just upgraded to the new Airport Extreme and cannot get it to work. Buffalo support, after a two hour wait and and a 40 minute conversation, decided that it wouldn't work. If it worked on the older Airport Express, I think it should work on this one.
    Does anyone have any idea how I can get this NAS drive hooked up to the Router?
