i would expect a wall of errors before even done formatting if you dont have have as a minimum a hba that supports hm-smr.
Beyond that btrfs has stable support now i belive.
I do not have much experience using them outside of a work setting with "our" proprietary setup.
The problem is that "this long" tends to have been a 36month cycle in production (if not pulled earlier in fear of the bug) and then sat on a pallet waiting to be liquidated, and from the vendor stats ive seen they are dieing like flies from 42-48months and out.
That they are now maybe 7-8yeard...
There are sooo many OEMs of these 2.5gbe switch boards and they are always on sale like this to make it look like a deal
60$ for one is not bad, but thats like a 5-10$ discount vs normal price not a 140$ discount.
Its just the black friday type large days you get any real reductions on them...
Thats just the fake inflated price to make it feel like a deal, not something it has actualy been sold/listed for.
For a generic managed 8x 2.5g with 1-2x 10g that fake sale price is about what it normally costs.
At 2.3ghz id be better off with the 6133.
i need a few 2.5ghz and up options, its the buyer paying that price with margin added without any pushback anyhow.
CPUs have started climbing a bit ive seen for single units, especialy the OEMs like 6133 that was down in 20$ for a while.
My gotos when i spec boxes cheap-ish are these
Xeon 5120 (14x2.2ghz) around 15$
Xeon 6138 (20x2.0ghz) around 35$
Xeon 6162 (24x1.9ghz) around 80$
Xeon 6134 (8x3.2ghz)...
I really want epyc for my own lab but not really been that many epyc drops of servers at a low-ish price yet.
Ive seen these gigabytes G292-Z20 around 400€ with a 7402p but thats pretty much it.
But they are cheap for a reason i suppose, not really much exposed IO or a massive demand for 8gpu...
The price difference for me to buy something like 256gb ddr4 2133p + 2x 16core v4 VS 256gb ddr4 2666v + 2x 20core gen1 is insignificant.
So its the barebone CTO prices i mainly follow and what dictates my outgoing prices.
It really facinates me how we are not seeing a larger transition in...
Yeah with v3/v4 xeons its mostly been 2-4 optional bays that needs enablement kit.
Now we are increasingly seeing gen1 scalable dumped with 8-16nvme bays ready to go.
Ironicly scalable is hard to get out the door fast enough for the resellers, most are still only looking at v3/v4 models for...
Material and production costs going up goes directly onto product, not really any shocker.
But i suppose the AI headline gets more clicks than the already extensively covered actual main reasons.
For used SSDs ive seen the listing prices going up on some stuff, but even if what they want has...
The 2666 ram compatability the scalable cpus are listed with is up to 2666, so on a budget you can reuse the same 2133p as with v3/v4 cpus in the v3 model servers.
The xeon 6133 20core/40thread cpus also work in them btw (OEM version of 6138).
Looks like you are also in Norway, then finn tends...
As a large company ebay will still not let you bypass the 200/500/1000/1500/2000/3000 etc increments of getting up your sales limit.
If you are starting out today it still takes years to get decent sales limits.
If you are at lets say 2000 they have no problem with giving you 5 more accounts...
its a shame the sellers i usualy buy from is out of cheap 829u atm.
could pickup a 50-60€ barebone/CTO 819u 4LFF, but after mobo+heatsinks thats gone be more expensive than just getting a 4LFF scalable cisco/lenovo box.
Last time i used them was a client with a row of 2U4N units they wanted shelves added onto.
Shelves had to go in next/new rows as redoing main one was not even a topic.
The cisco 40gbe cards are pretty decent with them also.
Im on cisco hosts now since their 20-30$ish cards are esxi8 supported and also supports 4x10 splitting from nic.
So can use one port at 40gbe and split other as 4x10gbe on both ends with just a standard qsfp.
