    Good, because I disassembled the 4p rig last week. Only the boot disk remained. That's how it looked like:

    Patrick, I started the script on 2 machines: 1) Dual E5-2697v2 2) Quad E5-4650 How long will this run approx? minutes or hours? BTW, one quick observation. I have a power meter connected to the Quad Xeon machine: The computational density of the benchmark is very low (at least the part I...

    Patrick, thanks for packaging it up. I was travelling in the last few days (US, Portugal, Switzerland, Denmark) but are now back. I'll report as soon as I have something to report - Please gimme some time, the inbox is quite full :-) Andy

    Patrick, if they are ready to run - happy to do. If I need to become a specialist before, my time budget might be a barrier. Let me know, Andy

    IvyBridge Xeon E5-2697v2 experiences

    Hadn't been here for a while. A week ago I received my two E5-2697v2 CPUs (12c, 24t, 2.7Ghz, 130 watt). Thought there is some interest sharing experience with these. When comparing to SB Xeon, I am referring to the E5-2687W I got a year ago. Packaging: The 12-core IB Xeons are a bit...

    New home NAS and Hypervisor setup

    Low power and silent go hand in hand. Not sure if it really makes any difference which of the i7-3xxx CPUs you select with 3 raid controllers in the system. The CPU will idle with ca. 2 watt and while I don't know the exact power consumption of the your controllers, I wouldn't be surprise if...

    Anyone with 4 x Samsung 840 PRO's on RAID5 with LSI Card?

    My observation is a bit different. When I did the power consumption test with differnt SSDs last year, the Samsungs were among the lowest with idle power consumption. BTW, the 840 Pro peak write power is about 30-40% lower than in the 830 generation. QUOTE]Question 2: Using a FLASH BACK write...
