First of all apologies for the green screen at 9 minutes it'll only last 10 seconds or so so hang on in there! A file server has died in the server room and I need to fix it, users are unable to access their data and a resolution is required fast!
On reflection it would be a more ideal to set up a new server with a RAID 5 or 6 array for redundancy.
Watch me as I setup a new file server running server 2012 R2 and install it into our server room. This video was recorded as and when it happened, it has taken a day of recovery time and planning.

When disaster strikes, I was prepared. All filming is shown running on a live network. Good to keep us on our toes!

The users affected can now access their files and had only a few hours downtime. Awesome!

Please note MBR limit 2TB (forgot this noobish mistake at the time)
We raid 0 for performance as we run daily offsite and onsite backups to ensure all data is thoroughly backed up and secure.

Please like and subscribe to me and thanks again for watching
Until next time, see ya.
