I have one with 4 nodes running at a colo. Did you buy them all together or as separate pieces? I found out the hard way that the chassis are not all the same and the nodes will only power up on the right chassis.

Hi everyone. I have six Xeon 6240 CPUs for sale. $850/each shipping included to the lower 48 states.

Bought cheap Oculink via Amazon. Had errors, hangs and disappearing drives on POST. Got Supermicro cables and they are rock solid after over of year of operation. Fortunately, it's no longer available: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09C1WKLF8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Oh, before that Corsair I had two Tagen 1000 watt power supplies that were regarded as excellent. Both died several years ago.

I have a Corsair AX1200 that I purchased in January 2011. It's still going strong in my Corsair Obsidian 800D case (purchased the same time). I believe the motherboard has been upgraded 4 times, maybe 5. The first video card in that case/power supply was a 8800 GTX times 3 for triple SLI and...

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?
