I just got a chassis with one of these in, I don't need the board or CPU. Do these boards use a lot of idle power? I could do with a new board in my secondary TrueNAS box, but I don't need 6 x 10GbE
Oh yeah, that does look like a decent chassis. A lot of my objections is just that there are a ton of drive bays on the front, only 2 of which would be used
I could probably use the 2 on the far right, and then 3D print some kind of cover to go in place of the left ones, that would be pretty cool
Of course, I had an ERL which failed and I temporarily ran PFSENSE in a VM for 4 years
Ended up switching to physical and never did plug in the ERL again...
Do you just restore the entire config, or just have one configured similarly?
I did toy with the idea of just throwing a pfsense VM in ESXi, configured with all the same VLAN's etc. If I could find a way to sync DHCP/DNS/Wireguard config, that would be easy
I could terminate WAN into a switch...
The CSE-815 is on my radar, it may be my best choice. Sadly I will then also need to purchase some rails, bumping up the cost, and I will need some 3.5 to 2.5 adapters
