Same way you got your first. Tokens to same email are sent every 24 hours. Also if you use your first token only then you get new token on same email else you will get same token the second time.

Supermicro :+1:
My server looks the same.

I submitted with the same and a new email over 72h ago.

Yes, the wait-list is getting backed up a bit I think… Ever since beta 2 it seems. It is good for the network I guess.

please open a support request at our helpdesk listing the email addresses you requested auth tokens with.

2 servers. Both 8GB RAM, Xeon. One is 2TB, The other is only 1TB. One of the servers (The one with the external hard drive on top) is my home server.

Kind of a mess… Still a work in progress!

Rack-Closet.
This is a few months back while setting this up. I’ve got two SA120 enclosures, one with SAS and another one with SATA, about 72TB in total.

My storage closet is also running an SSD-FC-SAN with 16x250GB SSDs - 4x8Gigabit to my ESXi nodes, and a HP LTO6 FC tape drive for various backups.

All feed with dual ISPs, one Fiber 1G/1G and a backups of 500/100. SAN is mostly brocade and networking is 100% Juniper including vSRX for Firewalls

Apologies for dust which escaped to my cloth.
Includes artefacts to protect the nodes & me. :sweat_smile:

Who said than only software developers can build for Storj, industrial SNO also can build something for Storj :slight_smile:

Here is first prototype of Capacitor-1
I was inspired by BackBlaze storage pods and completely redesigned it for Storj/Tardigrade. Tardigrader-1 is designed for 1,2PB capacity, has efficient power supplies (Platinum level), an absolutely new colling system that keeps drives cool and produce low noise as much as possible (it can be used at HOME!)
It my last build of this year, but on the new year I will have something new for other SNO’s :wink:
