stoopit drive

i got a call from PA a little after 4pm and she let me listen to this annoying beeping coming from one of the servers up here. so i told her i'd be up. i'm wondering if i should adjust my hours because the 10-12 minutes earlier onto 93N really made a difference.

anyways, after some quick checking, i discovered that one of the drives in the RAID array decided it didn't like to work anymore. fortunately, rebuilding it has fixed the drive, but rebuilding a 73gb drive took a little more than 2 hours. it's finished now, but i figure as i'm the only person here in the office (oooo...spooky. not really.) i figured i would do some updates and then head home.

and because of this, i didn't get the chance to finish configuring that stupid thinkpad. i was going to have it done before i left but with the drive thing (which i didn't know at the time, just knew it was the server), i felt that was a priority, and i'll get it finished once i get in.
