Subject: Heads up on QNAP before you Dive in

Message: Hi Chris ‘n’ Noah

Just listened to this week’s LAS and my ears pricked up when I heard your enthusiasm for an upcoming QNAP device you are getting for review. Thought I would drop you a line with my experience of using their kit. We have three of their rackmount TS series NAS units (2 x 8 disk and 1 x 4 disk devices). We used them for relatively inexpensive archive storage as well as an onsite backup device and an off-site replication copy. Primary storage is on DELL iSCSI SANs.

We used them with 6TB WD Reds until recently after losing data on them for around the 20th time
Quite regularly the volumes would drop offline despite the disks showing as healthy. Typically QNAP support would log into the devices and run an FSCK repair which would take several days. Sometimes this would work and sometimes it wouldn’t, requiring us to completely rebuild the units and restore data to them.
Earlier this year we replaced the first unit with a thrown together FreeNas box. We noticed an instant improvement in performance and it hasn’t faltered once. We have since replaced the other two backup devices with similar improvements and have just replaced one of the Dell iSCSI SANs with a FreeNas box which out-performs the Dell with much cheaper disks.
My current project I have just built a Proxmox cluster with a full SSD FreeNas and 10Gbe iSCSI interconnects. It boots to a Windows 2012 server desktop in 2 seconds! (Not my choice of OS but obviously it does Linux really well too).

Hope my experience of QNAP will encourage you to be cautious with any data you trust them with.

Keep up the sterling work!
Gordon

New Executive Director of Bitcoin Foundation

• Jon Matonis Named New Executive Director of Bitcoin Foundation | Bitcoin MagazineBitcoin Magazine

Jon Matonis has served as an advocate for the Bitcoin currency and a source of insight for cryptocurrencies and general matters of finance and politics. Prior to assuming his position as Executive Director, Jon Matonis served on the Board of Directors for the Bitcoin Foundation. He currently is a regular contributor to Forbes and is the editor of The Monetary Future economics blog and has not only a passion for but understanding of the ins and outs of the Bitcoin currency.

Jon serves as a member of the Bitcoin Magazine Editorial Board and has contributed articles to the print magazine and website. Prior to getting heavily involved in the Bitcoin currency, Jon served as the CEO of Hushmail and Chief FX Dealer at Visa. Prior to accepting his new appointment of Executive Director of the Bitcoin Foundation, Jon was a board member holding the officer role of board secretary.

• Jon Matonis – The Monetary Future – Forbes

• The Monetary Future: Why I Accepted Executive Director Position for Bitcoin Foundation

One of my primary near-term objectives for the Foundation is to
become more inclusive of the various constituencies within the global
bitcoin community.

This will involve being more responsive to and
communicative with member requests. It will also involve being more open
to internationalization.

Currently, 60% of the Foundation\’s membership
is non-US based and we need to do a better job behaving like a global
organization. To this end, we will hold the next Bitcoin conference
outside of the United States and we will sign on local Foundation
chapters in several countries where interested parties have taken the
lead on expanding the principles of Bitcoin in their region.

Winklevoss Twins Stirring it Up

• Winklevoss’ ETF product draws laughs for a reason | Business – The News Tribune

Over the years, fund industry watchers have laughed about a lot of wild investment ideas.

So when the fund observers started laughing recently after seeing the registration papers for the Winklevoss Bitcoin Trust — a new exchange-traded product that faces a lengthy vetting process from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission — the question was which laugh, first or last, will be the better one here, and who will get the final guffaw.
