Would you please share your RAM brand and product code? I already tried with LRDIMM (SAMSUNG M386A8K40BM1 CPB), but no luck. So probably it just won't work

Yes probably. I once had a lab build with NUC6i3SYK. Its CPU i3-6100U spec supports 32GB RAM at most. However, it works just fine with 64G (32x2). Don't know if Xeon D-1587 could be similar

I've found my homelab build with X10SDV-16C-TLN4F is now limited by its 128G RAM capacity. Although the mother board spec says it supports up to 128GB registered ECC RDIMM with 2133/1866/1600MHz. I wonder if anyone successfully upgrade to 256GB (64x4)? It is a pity supermicro doesn't...

How about the temperature? I tried 3 noctua 40x20 PWM fans + SNK-C0057A4L Heatsink, the temperature is around 63C while it is idle (environment around 30C in summer). It is too high to run it 7x24

It looks CRS309-1G-8S+IN is quite promising. I mainly use the 10GbE switch for vSAN traffic, L3 throughput is not that important to me

Hello I am planning to upgrade my home lab and need your advice on 10GbE switch. Low power assumption and low noise. I have my rack in the living room so it is important 8 or more SFP+ ports L2 features like VLAN, jumbo frame Support DAC cable Optionally L3 static routing Any suggestion...

@tenet, it looks great! Can you share some pictures of your mod?

I just have my 2 SYS-E300-8D setup done (ESXi 6U2). Those 40mm little fans are rather annoying: they are constantly at 6000-7000 RPM (~80% of full speed, CPU temperature around 50C) even ESXi is idle. Already got complains from my wife... Really appreciate it if someone can share experience in...
