Thanks for all the suggestions! I grabbed an HPE PM1725b 6.4TB AIC drive from ebay for €430. It seemed like a great deal for a European seller. It has had only 6TB written to it!

Hello, I am looking to replace an IODrive 2 Duo 2.4TB in a Dell R720 with something that is a bit bigger and that does not require 3rd party drivers. Probably for something that is PCIe 3.0, unless PCIe 4.0 is less expensive for some reason. Last time I checked, the PM1725b was all the rage but...

Anyone tried ECC RAM with non-Pro CPU?

Does it support bifurcation though? I don't see any mention of it on the Gigabyte website.

I am interested in this mod to cut down on the power consumption. Does anyone have any before-after power measurements?

I have 2 ICX6450-48Ps that after updating the firmware following the fohdeeshadocs instructions to the letter, keep spewing these errors on the terminal: PoE Error: Device 0 failed to start on PoE module. PoE Error: Device 1 failed to start on PoE module. Resetting module in slot 1 again to...

Are you sure you are using a PCIe slot that is not PCIe 2.0 x8 or PCIe 3.0 x4 or otherwise limited in speed like going through the chipset? 400MB/s sounds like it is close at the 500MB/s theoretical limit for said slot configurations. Edit: I got my calculations wrong, you need to be running at...

It doesn't sound like this is your problem but might be worth investigating. The Intel NICs don't like modules that are not Intel branded. There is a kernel module option to disable this with SFP+ cards but not with the X710. Have a look at this before you start troubleshooting the switch...

The switches are at separate locations connected via a pair of Ubiquiti antennas. The two VLAN1s are not connected at L2, thus the need to route between them through VLAN1012 at L3. So, even if they both have the same VLAN tag, they are two separate networks. I don't see how them having the same...

I have a weird issue and I need some help. I have two ICX6450 switches connected to each other. SW1 has VLAN1 on 10.1.0.0/24 and SW2 has VLAN1 on 10.2.0.0/24. Both switches are connected via VLAN1012 on 10.1.2.0/24. Both switches have ve's on VLAN1012 and VLAN1. Both switches have static routes...

I would like to ask for some help, as I have no experience with L3 switching (total noob). I have two different sites that are connected via a pair of Ubiquiti Nanobeam APs. Both sites have a pfSense router in place and are using different LAN subnets and are in general separate from each...

Either there is a bug with port mirroring or I am doing something wrong. (ICX6450) As soon as I enable a port as a mirror, I start seeing multicast traffic, without setting a monitor port, as another member discovered a few years ago...

Hello, I am looking for any/all of: ICX6430, 24 or 48 port, PoE, with rack ears ICX6450, 24 or 48 port, PoE, with rack ears ICX6430/ICX6450 rack ears

I am running OpenVPN on my pfSense firewall(s). Everything else is accessible just fine. This happens at 3 separate locations with 4 separate switches. Every location is running OpenVPN on pfSense. Edit: I am not using the OOB management port, I am using a veth interface. $ ssh -o...

Hey guys! I have multiple of these switches and I have an issue. For some reason, I cannot access the switches either through SSH or the Web UI through OpenVPN. I have to SSH to a device on the same subnet as the switch and then SSH from that device to the Brocade switch. Is there a setting I...
