Nope.. https://www.supermicro.com/en/products/chassis/4U/848/SC848A-R1K62B

I'm finishing my 848 build out. Currently have 4 E5-4650 v2 CPU and 256GB of RAM. I have swapped out the PS for SQ, but the fans are still pretty loud. Still working on the drives, but will probably start with (8) 2TB SATA SSD and (8) 14TB SATA HDD. In the front there are four (FAN-0115L4)...

I was able to reset the BMC and validate that the BIOS is at 3.0a. No need to drill holes...Just add bracket (MCP-220-00044-0N) to the peripheral drawer. Do you know if this will run with dual proc's in #1 and #4 or do I need to buy 4 procs at once?

After reading through the manual, I need further clarification. Currently there is are no CPUs or memory installed. CPU The manual states: To fully utilize all functionality and features offered by this quad motherboard, be sure to install four CPUs on the motherboard. Without four CPUs...

I picked up a X9QRi-F+ and need some 'technical' options for CPU and memory to build this out (storage server and running VMs). Supermicro 4U 848A-R1K62B / X9QRI-F+ / Barebone Server / 24x Trays / Rails | eBay I have never built out a multi-processor system from scratch. The concerns I have...

Can someone recommend an inexpensive compatible RJ45 Copper Transceiver for this card?

I'm a 10Gb newbie...started reading this thread and couldn't resist. I picked up a ICX7250-48 on ebay today. I started to build my console cable and excited to get playing.

Are there SM SAS2 direct attached backplanes (to support HDD >2TB) Or will the BPN-SAS-846A support HDD >2TB using M1015 in IT mode? I have an 8 year old Norco 4220 that is at full capacity. Running OmniOS/Napp-IT (AIO) with HGST 2TB drive & m1015 HBAs & SM mb. I wish to build a similar box...

@gea I am confused about your statement....it seems contradictary.. "You can and should -" .. "but you must not"

I have two M1015 cards flashed with P15 in IT mode running in a X9SCL-F MB. When I originally flashed these years ago I did so using dos in a different MB. I want to upgrade these to P19, still using IT mode and with the OptionsROM. 1. Can I use UEFI to update both cards (individually)...

Thank you. I currently have 580 on all of my 0F12117 drives. Can they be directly upgraded to A10? or do they have to be incrementally patched? I have a ZFS RAIDZ2 pool running on a M1015 controller. One of the drives has faulted. I took the drive out and ran DFT on it and there were no errors...

Kryptex would you please repost? Link is dead.

@gea: I am also using oi_151a with napp-it 0.500s (english), and receiving the same error: Use of uninitialized value in subroutine entry at /usr/perl5/5.10.0/lib/i86pc-solaris-64int/DynaLoader.pm line 226. Any suggestions how to resolve?
