The original project was such a HUGE success 3 years ago, thank you all once more!
But it is time for a new hard drive, once again.
The good news though is that the new drive is half the cost of the old drive, and has a third more space!
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820167128
So, for any of you who are willing to pitch in a few dollars, you can paypal me a personal payment to jkaris@kinnikuman.com and label it "LRG Server Fund".
I'll put whatever is raised towards the purchase price of the new drive. If we raise more than the cost of the drive, it will be set aside for future server upgrades.
Thanks guys!
LRG Server Upgrades! TIme for a new hard drive!

Does this explain why the site is down for me so much lately? 
My paypal is empty at the moment but I'll see what I can swing for you at some point. Do you have a deadline?

Yeah, the current drive is having intermittent issues. Last nights backup took 4 hours, which normally takes 10 minutes. Ditto with the night before and a couple crashes over the weekend.
No deadline. I am ordering the drive tonight, so anything you guys can donate to the cause, today, tomorrow, etc. will be appreciated.
Thanks to those who have donated already!!!!

I think if people are making a TON of cash selling class As on this board they should at the Least throw a couple bucks your way.

You will have to excuse my ingnerance. What is the reason a new one is needed? Is it because it is old and worn out? Or is it because it is no longer able to handle the amount of Trafic and saved data? Sorry but I'm really in the dark about these things?1366950964[/url]' post='498182']

I am donating the very LAST one of my Mekamess H.U.S.T.L.E. "Artist Proofs," as well as an exclusive purple ver to Jon to for a board auction. There were only five "Kinkeshi Flesh" copies ever made, and the purple ones are hard to come by as well. Should generate a little $ for the new server, with 100% going to the cause.

Got the new drive installed yesterday. It was so nice to not see any disk errors in the logs this morning!!! 
Thank you guys!!!
$195 total raised which pretty much paid for the drive, plus we still have the Mekamess figures above coming in to be auctioned off AND some killer custom painted OMFG figures by KoppensChevelle coming down the road.
The overage will go to cover some really snazzy board upgrades this summer.
Thank you guys so much!!!!!
