    What do the "GF" symbols on the left corner of the AMD EPYC processor cover mean?

    GF means that it is a Girlfriend Friendly product, where you will not be blamed for spending a lot of money on it. :D

    one time in 2019 I had to exchange a external hdd at Bestbuy. I had to wait for them to confirm that it was a real defect and it was refund only.

    Is is possible to mix Rdimm 2Rx8 with 2Rx4?- supermicro X10SRA-F

    I have 4 x16GB 2Rx8 PC4-2400 in my workstation and would like to add more ram, however, I'm finding with good prices only 32GB 2Rx4 PC4-2400. I can not find enough info if they can be mixed. I would guess using them isolated in banks A and B. Is someone with hands-on experience in this situation?

    Add TPM to Supermicro Motherboard?

    I have a Xeon E5. From this table our options are only V or V-S. Expanding your question, using V-S and activating TXT support makes sense in a workstation? Is TXT support useful or only adds complexity to manage it locally.

    8TB drives for raid - which to get?

    I have experience with ST DM 3TB too. I still don't feel like buying ST again. My error was to buy all from same model, I'll never do that again. Now I have a mix of 4TB Toshiba and WD reds.

    IPMI & Integrated Graphics

    If opengl 3.3 support is enough you can just add a cheap Geforce 210 for around $40 each.
