The database server is struggling with a hard disk which is on the verge of failing. Rebooting seems to fix things only temporarily. The data is safely backed up, so that’s not a concern, but I don’t have another server able to handle the load of the database server. So, I don’t have a good solution at hand. Anyone want to buy me a new server?

Why don’t you start charging people!?? $10-20 a month. If they don’t want to pay, your bandwidth problem is solved. THINK!

I did THINK and I’ve deliberately decided to not charge people for the time being. If I’m taking someone’s money, then I need to be able to commit to a certain level of service. That’s a commitment I’m not comfortable making at the moment, especially with a new job on the horizon.
