Hello Looking for a graphics card that could double as a small-time compute card for my SFF Thinkstation. I like RTX A2000 because it's about the maximum I can afford and because it blows its hot air out of the case. What I am worried about is if many of those cards currently for sale in eBay...

- No cradle and nothing related to it. Not sure yet but I have in mind to buy one from eBay and then dremel it in a way that still lets me use both M.2 slots. - No option card. I'd like to know what is the best quality or closest to original HDMI 2.0 output. - No WiFi or anything related to...

I got one HP, with 512 GB M.2 and one 8 GB SO-DIMM. Seems like nobody wanted these and on the last day of the sale for the last two hours they would have given additional 30 % off, but at that point I had already bought mine. They had 39 and sold four, which includes the one I got. If I had...

My educational institution is offloading a bunch of old computers for below market prices. Only one for each buyer. These both have i5-8500T, 8 GB and 512 GB (probably 2.5" SATA SSD, because M.2 is mentioned separately for other units). Given that they have no Thinkstations or Thinkcentres on...

Memory.net does not advertise any 32 GB ECC DIMM for Thinkstation P330. Also, W480 is a newer generation. I'll keep on looking for something that is affordable and available in Europe. And compatible, at least according to someone.

According to Wikipedia, Coffee Lake supports 128 GB total memory. Lenovo states that P330 SFF Gen 2 supports 64 GB, but there is a note that says "The max memory is based on the test results with current Lenovo® memory offerings. The system may support more memory as the technology develops." Is...

Thanks for all the information. I have one Refreshing Lake of Coffee coming my way. With a load of non-ECC memory though, so gotta take care of that when it arrives.

I wonder… are there multiple different motherboards for P330 SFF? Or if I buy just any P330 SFF, even an i5 Coffee Lake, I can swap a Coffee Lake Refresh Xeon and ECC memory into it and have everything working? This is, CL to CL Refresh, i5 to Xeon and non-ECC to ECC. Of course, just to be safe...

Thanks. I want to use two 3.5" hard disks for storage and one M.2 or 2.5" SSD for OS. Seems like Thinkstation P320 and P330 SFF would fit the bill. The SFF after that contain only one 3.5" bay. Also it clearly seems there is no tiny or mini from Dell or Lenovo with any type of Xeon. No. And...

Hello Got interested in mini tower Xeon workstations (Thinkstation P320 and such), but wondering if these are available in a yet smaller form factor. I haven't heard of a desktop mini with a Xeon, but whoever has done this research before, please tell me what you found.

Hello Bumping this to revisit this question. I think this is the correct way to do it, instead of starting a new thread. I eventually got a Netgear GS108Tv2. It is 1) fanless, 2) runs off a 12 V supply, 3) supports VLANs and 4) supports LACP. I could have survived with GS308T becase I don't...

Are there any serious management features in GSM5212-100NES ProSafe M4100 that are missing from GS108T? I think my final setup will include two GS108T connected together with two links, giving me 12 ports in a very nice form factor. But I'll start with one.

Hello again. And thanks for your contributions. It seems like the perfect solution would be the M4000-D12G, but I don't want to afford it at the moment. My best bet, to current budget and all other requirements, would be the better 8-port Netgear, that is GS108T. I use a 12 V system, based on a...

Hello I used search, but could not find an exactly matching thread. So here is a new one. I am looking for a * fanless, * managed * 8 to 12 port switch with * VLAN support (32 will do fine), * link aggregation and * STP support. I do not need PoE or QoS. I think I'll rather buy two...

I didn't ask for any steering. I didn't ask for any second-guessing. If you demand to do that and not answer any questions, then this simply is no forum for questions. Well, feel free to keep on steering each other and leave me out of it. I had no luck getting answers before showing any...

I think all my questions were clear. 1. How does the idle power consumption of Xeon D compare to recent simple E3 and E5 systems? 2. Is the Asus P8C WS a serious motherboard or a joke? This I got answered by reading around. It has a working ECC support, but that is a bare minimum. And the...

My goal is to have three separate machines, i.e. ESXi, NAS and workstation. I would never seriously consider combining a NAS and a workstation, and I've never heard anyone else doing that. Besides, I see no reason to migrate away from FreeNAS. The intention wasn't actually to avoid buying...

Hello I currently have an Asus P8C-WS with an Ivy Bridge E3-1245 v2 Xeon. It is currently serving as a hackintosh. No sleep, no hibernate, must be forced to power off. But otherwise quite nice. It has 24 GB ECC RAM, but OS X has no MCE support for the chipset. Has seen very little use since...

Now that there are 1518, 1520, 1521, 1527, 1528, 1529, 1531, 1537, 1539, 1540, 1541, 1548, 1557, 1559, 1567, 1571, 1577, 1581 and 1587, are there any other differences between these than the number of cores, the frequency, the TDP or the presence or absence of turbo? Were some of these supposed...
