Why buy from the Art of Server?
- I can provide technical support if you have problems
- I\'m aware of counterfeit products on the market, and I make every effort to ensure that what I sell are not counterfeit.
- I ship fast, usually same or next business day!
- I have a YouTube channel with many helpful videos. Look for \"Art of Server\" on YouTube. (sorry, I can\'t link per policy)
- I fully test the HBAs I sell. See my testing process on YouTube.
- I clean the server components I sell. You will not receive something covered in dust, or have unwanted stickers/labels, etc.
- I ship electronic parts in proper anti-static bags (not the pink stuff) with bubble wrap or foam protection where needed.
- I am a server enthusiast and IT professional that has worked with many brands of servers and have also built custom servers, not just someone selling computer parts. I love what I do! :-)
- I\'ve used ZFS for many years. I\'m familiar with ZFS on Linux, FreeNAS, and many of the technologies commonly used by other enthusiasts.
- I love cats. How can you deny my cute, cuddly charm?
Who is the Art of Server? I\'m a cat lover and a server enthusiast. I\'ve operated my own rack of servers at home for almost 20 years. I\'ve helped many friends and strangers with their servers. So, one day, I thought why not offer pre-flashed IT mode / HBA SAS controllers on to help others with their server build? Since then, I\'ve also added other \"interesting\" items to my store that I think other server/computer enthusiasts would like. Oh, and I love cats. :-)
