    LSI WarpDrive Sun Oracle F80 800GB PCI-E SSD $95 FS

    Just FYI these drives do NOT work with VSAN as VSAN requires 512 or 4k physical sector size and these are 8k. VSAN won't write anything to these SSDs.

    You can find them freely available on the nvidia page: NVIDIA DRIVERS Tesla Driver for Windows. Only thing you have to do is change to the correct mode ("graphic" or "computing") with gpumodeswitch.

    A silly Question, is there a better alternative to pfsense for home use?

    If you like pfsense as software but not the community have a look on the OPNSense fork. I use it since a year everywhere where I used pfsense before and am very happy with it. Gesendet von meinem BLA-L29 mit Tapatalk

    On mine the sheet metal latches were bent or broken. Someone janked out DACs without pulling the release levers -.-. I 3d-printed replacements.

    Rackmount 2U UPS recommendations

    If you only have 1-2 minutes of runtime you have to shutdown your stack every time power drops. Also you would have to wait 3-4 hours until the batteries are recharged before powering on again, because there could be a 2nd drop. Better go for about 5x the time you need to shutdown.

    Bitten by DL380 noise again

    You can use a HP P420 Controller. The problem is, that the drive temperature is read wrong by the P410i and the fans spin up to 100%. This shouldn't happen with a P420 and it will also be a reasonable upgrade (P420 can be set to passthrough/JBOD if you use ZFS or similar)

    Yes. The bootloader (xpenology) is. But you are booting the DSM software image of a ds3615xs or similar (the .pat file) which is not!

    1st time FreeNAS user needs help with "Failed to wipe da0: dd: /dev/da0: Invalid argument"

    You can't be serious giving stolen software (xpenology) to your customers? Synology doesn't sell licenses, you have to buy their hardware.
