I have one hung off a Comcast home gigabit connection, works fine. Using the DSL Reports speed test I get between 905-930Mbit/s downstream, with Snort configured in alert-only mode (so no IPS) and some modest traffic shaping to combat bufferbloat. Using a 4-port Intel NIC, so no comment on the Realtek that drives one of the two inbuilt ports. Haven't seen CPU go above 50% when speed testing. So far I'm very pleased with this for home gigabit.Anyone on a gigabit line running pfsense and IPS/IDS? If so, what speeds are you getting?
Trying to decide between getting this for a pfsense router or getting a USG Pro and building a Security Onion box to handle all the ips/ids.
Scroll back from this point in the thread a bit, someone posted a dump of their unmodified BIOS recently (sorry, I can't remember who at the moment and I'm mid-move so I'm reading the forums on my phone.)Anyone have a copy of the non-modified "original" firmware? I want to try that out and see if my NVME problems are solved. IOMMU is less important to me than working NVME.
You are expecting a 2013 vintage AMD embedded Steamroller/Kaveri design to support NVMe? Nope, not going to happen.Anyone have a copy of the non-modified "original" firmware? I want to try that out and see if my NVME problems are solved. IOMMU is less important to me than working NVME.
Weird, cause it works fine on the Original BIOS, just not the modified or unmodified IOMMU BIOS. I already said I got it working. I can get 3,000MB/s sequential reads in a VM with CrystalDiskMark. As I mentioned in the post above:You are expecting a 2013 vintage AMD embedded Steamroller/Kaveri design to support NVMe? Nope, not going to happen.
I never expected to boot from NVMe. The ignorance in your reply is amazing. I don't need BIOS support for NVMe, I just need it to boot with a NVMe drive inserted, it's just a PCIe device. I don't need OPROMs, or NVMe support from UEFI/BIOSjmhalder said:mind you, I won't be booting from this.
Just because you got it to work once doesn't mean this will always hold true. The AMD chipsets from that timeframe were never tested and/or certified with NVMe drives, and it's certainly not something that would be on the minds of any engineer working on the board. So tell me how it's ignorant people in here (especially me, since I wrote the guide on the t730) had no idea that you might see success getting a 400 USD NVMe drive on a 100 dollar machine that was never meant to use NVMe, despite no literature or even official documentation suggesting otherwise.Weird, cause it works fine on the Original BIOS, just not the modified or unmodified IOMMU BIOS.

You're correct. I think you're missing the point. It has PCIe Gen3, I don't want NVMe support. I just want PCIe support. It meets the spec for that, no? I'm NOT BOOTING FROM NVMe. The support is given by ESXi, which is in this case booted from USB. I'm sure it's not certified for TV Tuners, capture cards, 10GB NICs, RAID cards, etc. But I'd expect ALL of those to work at a OS level. Obviously I don't expect OPROM, or preboot stuff to work.The AMD chipsets from that timeframe were never tested and/or certified with NVMe drives, and it's certainly not something that would be on the minds of any engineer working on the board.
You can literally buy the same model I'm using (HP EX920 1TB) for $134 on NewEgg right now. NVMe drives are getting cheaper all the time. I would totally NOT recommend this model specifically, because it doesn't work on ESXi 6.7U1 or newer without swapping out for older NVMe VIBs.... no idea that you might see success getting a 400 USD NVMe drive on a 100 dollar machine that was never meant to use NVMe
I swear nvme with adapter pcie worked with original BIOS. if you look my previouse 3d printing case, I installed nvme pcie adapter. the nvme was sabrent rocket 256G(not in the picture). I understand non bootable to nvme, this just data storage for proxmox on my testingWeird, cause it works fine on the Original BIOS, just not the modified or unmodified IOMMU BIOS.

I think CSM is needed to load the "video" OPROM for the built in graphics, either NVME or BIOS will work for that. I fumbled my way through blind, and turned on CSM by guessing. I think that's why mine started working. I had to compare to BIOS screenshots in DFI's manual. Unless you NEED IOMMU, I'd recommend everyone just stay on the original BIOS.I flashed with the bios IOMMU enable last month, I verify that nvme on pcie was not working, and try to disable all oprom for network and legacy rom video and had the same result, well no display at the end ha!!!
This is make me not believing, I tried to reset with jumper CMOS by following the PDF, and it never resetted,
I gave up at the end to reset the BIOS to recpver no video output issue.
Because the system doesn't boot with NVMe adapter card? Use SATA, unless you NEED this system to produce more heat than it already does.Unless you NEED IOMMU, I'd recommend everyone just stay on the original BIOS.
can you help me the sequence ? I tried 10 times by looking the pdf and still did find the correct selection to load OPROM video.I think CSM is needed to load the "video" OPROM for the built in graphics, either NVME or BIOS will work for that.

you need to put heatsink on nvme. it works for me.Because the system doesn't boot with NVMe adapter card? Use SATA, unless you NEED this system to produce more heat than it already does.
Also, the BIOS I attached is for a slightly different board, the BE-171. Not sure which one you flashed, that one or the one from arglebargie, but perhaps that's why it doesn't work?
DT122-BE | 2nd Gen AMD Embedded R-Series | Bald Eagle | Pre-Configured System & Chassis | DFI The user manual has screenshots.can you help me the sequence ? I tried 10 times by looking the pdf and still did find the correct selection to load OPROM video.
please let me know the sequence to enable/load "OPROM" video.,if you do not mind..
Thanks
What fan did you use? I might try this if someone can recommend a good, quiet 80mm fan to use with it.Back on the 'how do I quiet it down' discussion - I replaced the CPU fan by printing this adapter: Various fan size conversion adapters. by TheMeerkat (specifically, the 80 to 50 adapter), and installed a regular 80mm fan. Worked great.
One of the eBay sellers had instructions in his listing to reset all the BIOS settings:can you help me the sequence ? I tried 10 times by looking the pdf and still did find the correct selection to load OPROM video.
