enclosure

Hi all, This is my first server grade build. Here's what I'm packing: - H13SSL-N - AMD 9654 - NVIDIA A10 (Passive) - 4x HDD 3.5" drives (SATA) - 2x M.2 drives with heatsinks Budget: roughly $100-$350 (looking in the used market mainly) I have not yet decided on a server rack type enclosure...

I have a synology ds920+ in and have replaced several drives and have a collection of 8tb Seagate compute (yes i know some are smr, hourly i can still use them?) and Toshiba n300 drives and an ironwolf. I wanted to create storage that i can put together a collection of retro files on (all kinds...

I have a pair of this enclosure and I'm currently using adapters to mount ten 2.5" SSDs into 3.5" drive bays. Does anyone know if there exists a higher density version of these enclosures purpose built for 2.5" disks?

I am putting together a new system and going with the ASRock Rack ROMED6U-2L2T motherboard that has 3 'Slimline PCIe4.0 x8' ports (albeit the specs list 2 'for U.2', the manual however lists 3 of those ports in total - two 'upwards' on the board and one at the backside) and a bunch of MiniSas HD...

So I got some Seagate 12TB drives quite a while ago in a good trade for me, but have not been able to decide on how to put them to use yet. There's about 80 of them, most of them still unused. I think my budget is around $2k tops. I am from Europe. I was dreaming of something like this: *NEW*...

I just got the ICY DOCK MB606SPO-B on amazon, and my system is not letting me hot-swap. Do you guys know to "enable" the function on Windows 10 Pro? I thought it would work straight out of the box. https://www.icydock.com/goods.php?id=285

A couple of months ago, I had the brilliant idea to consolidate several personal servers into one for ease of maintenance. I replaced two 9207-8i controllers with a 9305-24i (works great with FreeBSD 12, by the way) and planned to move the existing array into an external enclosure using adapter...

If some of you did not know, Xyratex Technology Limited was a UK based storage solutions company founded by former IBM Data Storage Systems division managers who bought out IBM's HDD factory in Havant (Hampshire, UK) when IBM decided to quit that line of business. The managers paid pennies on...

Hello there, I would like to use the following setup: Hitachi DF-F800-RKAKS with Enclosure Control Unit model: Y1KAS (p/n 3282443-A) connected to a Windows 2012 server (HP DL360e Gen 8) with SAS9207-8e (IT mode) using a K1BS cable (p/n 3276137-A) and I don’t get any progress. During the post...

Does any one know of an external usb 3.1/C enclosure that will house an M-Key 22 x 110 Samsung MZ1WV480HCGL MZ-1WV4800 drive? Can tell if this one works with m-key drives

What are currently best economical options for disk shelves supporting SAS3 and 12 or more drives ?

I'm planning a 40gbe (maybe infiniband) network for my homelab. I don't have a dedicated server room and from what I read the 40gbe switches are very loud (Mellanox list some of it's ethernet switches with 70dba). In different threads on sth people posted about soundproofed enclosures like the...

I was hoping someone would have an answer for this. I have both and connected, but I am unable to get the drives detected at the hardware level or software level. As I have 2 enclosures each having eSata ports each, I only needed a SAS-eSata cable to connect to the enclosures. My assumption is I...

OK, I see all the major players, renaming their JBODs to Enclosures (I think this started with HP). To me this seems a little odd since I always felt a JBOD was just what it implied, Just a Bunch Of Disks and an Enclosure was synonymous with chassis. To me a disk enclosure could mean either a...
