杰克Kauter and Park Place Technologies Chief Technology Officer of Managed 十大赌博正规老平台, 克里斯Carreiro, discuss the question – “What can be done to prevent the most common server faults when it comes to hard drives and motherboards?在这个月的 问工程师.

 

杰克: Hi everyone and welcome back to 问工程师. I’m pleased to welcome CTO, Chris Correro to this episode. Chris, how are you doing?

克里斯: 伟大的. 感谢杰克. Thanks for having me.

杰克: No problem at all Chris. Today’s question is regarding server faults. More specifically, what can be done to prevent the most common server faults when it comes to hard drives and motherboards?

克里斯: 绝对. Let’s go through each one of them.

First on the list would be hard drive failures. The most common hard drive failure probably be mechanical, electrical, even a logical disk failure.
These occur when they’re either dropped or exposed in an unfavorable environment, if there’s a voltage spike, 过热, even data corruption, improper registry changes, accidental drive formatting.

When a hard drive fails, admins use common tools like FSCK or check disk within Windows to check and repair those logical errors.

Building redundancies via RAID can also prevent these failures from becoming a real big issue.

杰克: 是的,绝对. And what about failures from motherboards?

克里斯: So motherboard failures – those usually include 过热, electrical failures, or physical damage and sometimes even humidity problems.

Preventing these types of errors come from ensuring proper air flow to the device. Verify that the device is stored at the proper temperature.

A static charge, power surge or even electrical spikes can cause malfunction.

Be sure that if you’re performing a hot swap, you don’t accidentally contact the system.

Or leverage a surge protector in the environment.

杰克: 是的,绝对.

克里斯: Moisture in the air and electronics don’t really mix well and can create corrosion in short circuit issues.

杰克: 是的,绝对. 好吧, it sounds like there’s a lot that could potentially go wrong with servers if you fail to take those preventative measures, 正确的?

Chris, thank you so much for your time and sharing this helpful information with our listeners.
