    Jim, Thanks for the quick reply. If the disk trade up for 5U servers is not available from Kaleidescape, then where would you get the 1TB disk drives for a 5U server from? I guess the only other option would be to upgrade to a 1U or 3U server for a 20% discount.... Thanks Luis

    Current Kaleidescape promotions

    Jim, In option #3, do you pay full price for the larger capacity disks or you get a discount from full price? I would expect that since you are giving back your current (smaller capacity) disks, you would get a credit for them. I have a 5U server with 12 500GB disks. Can I upgrade to 750GB or 1...

    Simultaneous Importing (2) x M-700 Disc Vaults with (1) 3U Server?

    Mr Poindexter: which are the parameters that you should tweak on a managed switch to speed up the data transfer between K devices? It is the Qos, or allocate more of the bandwith to the MAC addresses of the devices, or is there something else? I have a Cisco SG 200 smart gigabit switch that can...

    Server Static or Dynamic IP address?

    This has been very instructive for me in helping to analyze the pros and cons of both options. Based on the feedback provided, I guess DHCP reservations is the way to go. Croptop points are good ones as this simplifies network maintenance and self adjusts as the network grows and evolves...

    Kaleidescape back in court in May 2011?

    I guess nothing will change until a "definitive" (and binding) Court ruling is issued; as opposed to the "tentative" one just issued. That this means that we will need to retrofit disc vaults into our existing outlays? This may be a problem for some of us with limited space available in our...

    Server Static or Dynamic IP address?

    I have a question: which is better, setting the server with a static or dynamic IP address? If I understood correctly the instructions given in the installer interface, K recommends a dynamic ip address. I am not sure this is better as I believe the communication between server and players...

    How is everyone enjoying the M-700 Vault

    I wonder whether the M700 LPCM 7.1 "issue" ..could also be fixed with a KEAOS upgrade? or it would require upgrading chips on the M700 Motherboard? Does anybody know? I agree with Josh that is a nuisance to have to go through unwanted material when watching blue ray's special features....

    How is everyone enjoying the M-700 Vault

    I have had my M700 for about a month and a half and have almost all my DVD's loaded into the server. Now I am in the process of loading up the blue rays and also realized that I will need more server space soon!!! The loading process is foolproof and the equipment performs as advertised. The...

    NEWS: Kaleidescape's New iPad App!

    ..."soon" could mean this week or next month..... I wonder why it has taken this long to release the app. May be they had licensing issues to clear? In the promotional video it seems as if the app is fully developed ad functional.
