Sunday July 3rd, Offline for some repair

Goodmorning, Imagedeposit.com will be offline for 24 hours do to a unplanned power interruption. It turns out that the power was lost and now the server is doing a reboot and installing a bunch of updates and then doing a check disk. This could take some time. Your photos will be saved in something called RAID 10, I run the server on an IBM x345 with the RAID 10 on six disks with two hot spars.

Sorry for the interruption.

Hello ImageDeposit customers.

Today, I’ll be moving ImageDeposit.com to a new data center to help with our growth. That is why the site is not reachable. Sorry for the interruption in service. We will be back online later Monday 4AM. If all goes will, max downtime is three hours, the time it takes to drive from Sacramento to San Francisco.

OK, I have work to do.

thanks

Wayne

Back online.

Hello ImageDeposit users. Well the growth has been so much, that were bottle necking again due to capital contraints. I’m engineering a system for the paid customer to have much faster downloads. I expect to have this done by the weekend. Were also moving the data center back to San Francisco from Sacramento sometime this month. We had great service from http://RippleWeb.com.
