[Steve Modica] “On the client side, there’s only ever one socket, so you won’t see any additional bandwidth. Does that make sense?”
Does this still hold true in a hypothetical scenario where the links are trunked directly from the server to the client (no switch) via LACP?
I read that LACP allows to present multiple physical links as a single logical channel. I am not sure how it works of course, i.e. if something like file transfer will be able to use multiple physical links.
Thanks!

If IRST doesn’t show volume info like in the screenshot below, then it’s not configured properly. I’d suggest calling Dell first and asking them the same questions you are asking here. After all, it was their responsibility to configure it.

Thanks Joe,
I talked to my animator friend some more: she wants a lightweight tablet she can draw on (using a pen). From my initial research, no such animal exists yet, that would work well with, say, Poser Pro.
She wants something she could take to a coffee shop or a park and draw on it for a couple of hours – again, using a stylus, not fingers.
A tablet like this would need to be the size of iPad or maybe a little heavier, have decent CPU performance and memory capacity – like you mentioned – and a decent graphics chip.
Am I correct thinking no such animal exists yet?
The Motion Graphics model I mentioned in my 1st post actually does have a decent CPU, but lags in memory and especially in graphics departments.

4-drive RAID1 array? Meaning the info from one drive is mirrored, duplicated to the other three?
I haven’t heard of RAID1 configurations with more than 2 drives although it’s not impossible – just unusual. If that’s indeed the case – then yes, you can take one of the drives off-site (unmount first) and you will be able to restore the contents of the array if something happens to the other three.

It’s not a pro grading monitor obviously and doesn’t support 30-bit color if I remember right – but it is an S-IPS type, giving it a much wider gamut vs. mainstream TN monitors. The big question is, can it be calibrated.

What will be the main video format (e.g. 1080p30 H.264)? These MBs might be a bit too slow to playback H.264 video smoothly – the rest of the specs seem OK (not great but OK) for student purposes.

The video you posted is one you’d like to emulate, right? (I.e. it’s not your video?)
I don’t see an on-board light in that video, and when I do see purple hue, it seems to be the effect of the club lighting, possibly blacklights.
Certainly, 5D should produce less noise in low light, vs. 7D.

Like Ann said, it’s always better not to scale up for fear of fuzzy images, but if you have to, scaling in post theoretically produces better quality vs. camera’s digital zoom because the software (AE, Pr) has more muscle (better CPUs, more time) to minimize quality loss. Moreover, when using camera’s digital zoom, the quality is irretrievably lost, whereas if you scale up in post, you still have the original image if you don’t like the results of the scaling.
HTH.
