Thanks for the help. Unfortunately, it's still not working for me: IBM-SSG IBM-SSGSSNU7P6 E185 peripheral_type: disk [0x0] PROTECT=0 Unit serial number: HSR031B10000822150Z3 LU name: 5000c500a1844b44 mode sense(6) cdb: [1a 00 01 00 fc 00] Mode Sense (block...

Hi. Did you get this resolved?

Hello everyone. I picked up one of these drives off Ebay and I can't seem to get it recognized by my SAS controller (LSI 3008 onboard controller on a Supermicro MB). During POST (while the controller scans the bus), the drive doesn't show up. Other SAS and SATA drives show up fine, including...

The Micron 7300 Pro has PLP and is 2280 form factor.

Can these machines run ESXi 7.0?

Whoops. Thought I was in the storage forum. I see it's already been moved. Sorry about that.

Hi everyone. I'm trying to install a couple of these SATA SSDs into the built in M.2 riser on a Proliant X170R node for an ESXi datastore. It works and is recognized, but after a few minutes of operation, iLO5 reports that sensor 60 (AHCI HD) reports a high temp situation and the server shuts...

Is one access point enough to cover your home? Is it enough to handle all your wireless clients? You might benefit in adding an additional access point and theoretically splitting all your wireless clients between two APs and therefore, two separate gigabit connections.

Why not just mount the .ISO as virtual media thru the iLO and boot off of that? During post, hit F11 for the boot menu and select iLO virtual media. If you go into Intelligent Provisioning you can also upgrade the firmware as long as the server has an internet connection. Truth be told...

Can all the SFP ports be licensed to handle 10 Gig?

Hi everyone. I'm looking for four vSAN cache drives for my cluster but I'm having trouble finding something affordable. Optane p4801x is too expensive. I have 4 nodes with 6 SATA SSDs (Samsung 960 Gig) each. I'm looking to run ESXi 7.0u2 or higher. Its doesn't have to certified as this is...

Here's the link: *New* HP 874491-001 Apollo R2600 Gen10 Barebones Chassis SFF W/ 4x Fans Anyone familiar with these Apollo chassis? I can't find any details on 874491-001, but it looks like 867158-B21 - HPE Apollo r2600 24SFF-Prem Gen10 CTO Chassis. Next closest seller is in the $600 range...

I was able to make them work on non-HP/Compaq machines, including the power on/off. You were stuck with the "video card" on the Lights Out board, however, which just plain sucked. I think the Lantronix Spider was your best bet for awhile, but I think that's discontinued. There are several...

How do these fare as a vSAN cache drive?

I have one of these to extend the Xbox One Kinect from my TV to my A/V rack. I have the 40 foot version which doesn't appear to be available anymore. It's pricey, but has worked for years (runs in-wall up into the attic and over to my A/V rack). Kinect is a USB 3.0 device and very sensitive...
