Long story short... SSHd into the machine with the PERC, sg_formatted 16 drives at once in the background, and lost the session around 25% lol. So all the drives are showing up as Unsupported Bad in BIOS. I thought the background & formats would be fine and that I had learned from the botched...
Just wanted to update people... if you ever run into this issue, please ensure that you have the connector plugged in the right way... f'king SAS SFF8644 goes in both ways apparently lol. Turned them over and seeing both enclosures now...
Hey! Maybe you can help me understand what's going on. I upgraded from a LSI 9200 to an LSI 9400-16i figuring I can connect 2 enclosures to it. LSI 9200 was feeding the MD1200 in IT mode, no problem.
Since I got the LSI 9400-16i (with 4 internal ports), I had to somehow translate them to the...

@zac1 has the largest SuperMicro warehouse outside of their HQ. Bought a crazy amount of RAM from him... came packaged better than if Samsung shipped them. He goes above and beyond... ships stuff overnight. Probably works for the government so watch out. Other than that, awesome to deal with...
I'm getting a couple of Dell R740s and found some 240w TDP Xeon CPUs... just curious if there's any way to make them work in an R740.

Thank you for your reply. I don't care about that one in particular... I suppose I'm curious whether people have hands-on experience with ES/QS on the Dell Rx40 14th gen platform
Hey there,
Was just wondering if anyone had any luck with ES / QS CPUs on the R740. I see these Platinum 8xxx CPUs going for low enough that I'm willing to explore what one would look like. For example: Intel Xeon Platinum P-8124 SR2YS 18-Core 3.0GHz 3.7 Turbo LGA-3647 CPU Processor | eBay...
