Tonight marks the cutover from PROTONX to PROTON server. This site is now running on the newly configured machine. Processor speed, memory and storage are all more than double what they were before, plus it's now in a sweet new case that says DIGITAL all over it. The Cougarfest Archive which was the excuse for my upgrades is now parsing thumbnails at ungodly speed. I spent over 2 hours configuring and testing everything, but if you have a domain or space on this server take some time to test everything and make sure I didn't miss anything (PuckPuck you owe me your DB password!). I'll have the old PROTONX server on hand for a few months just in case something went wrong, but so far everything looks fantabulous. Now for my hardware showoff plug:
