Five years ago before Christmas I bought my first SSD – Crucial MX300 750GB. I have put it into my linux server running some web hosting (running this blog for example), my emails. Second MX300 was put into Linux MD Raid1. Disk were running two years in this setup, then I have migrated into virtualized setup, running ESXi, booted from USB drive. SSD were re-used and running as hw Raid 1 using LSI-9211 card.

This is important, when you have rights assigned just to specific resource pool and vmFolder.
You can check CPU microcode revision on running ESXi host this easy way. Open SSH session to host and then open vsish

Many comments in http://blog.erben.sk/2014/02/06/country-cidr-ip-ranges/ was about IPv6 support.
My previous post was about WinTVDual-HD working well for Czech DVB-T2. I also own Xbox One Digital TV tuner. Does it work for Czech DVB-T2 when there are warnings about problems with German DVB-T2?
