Got in for a pair of drives yesterday as well. The price was hard to pass up. Thanks for posting the deal.

I don't follow the prices of these closely but just thought I'd point out that this one has been the same price since Feb of this year (which maybe has made it a great deal since then)

For those of you who have reported dead PoE ports, does the UI report them not working or did you actually plug each one into a device to figure out whether it worked or not?

Aha, thanks for the tip... just did a search and found this post. Linking it directly for future searchers.

Mine arrived and is in excellent condition. It was really well wrapped as well, so @frameshift18, you seem to have drawn the short straw on packaging. For anyone wondering about power, mine idles at ~55W once the fans spin down from jet mode on the initial spin up. I also just purchased...

Jumped on one (that I really don’t need but couldn’t resist) as well. Thanks for the tip. :)

Thanks for posting the deal. I needed a big parity drive for my new unraid server and this fits the bill nicely.

Yep.... does mPCIe make you angry? :)

Awesome tip @dan81 , I'm certain I've got a few of those around. I'll probably drop one in mine as well. My system is operating under very low load so I can't imagine the reduced fan speed will matter much.

Thank you for finding that cable! I knew it must be out there but my search skills were failing me. re: the disk configuration... yeah, this is an Unraid box and performance is a very low concern. I already had this MoBo from an abandoned past build and it works quite well for this with its...

Hi all - I have an Asus Z9PR-D12 motherboard and just ordered the PIKE RAID card. I've seen them mentioned a few times on this board, but for reference, they're an add-on PCI card that goes in a special slot on this motherboard which then enables 8 SAS ports on the motherboard to be connected...

FYI, mine arrived today. Same specs as in the earlier post so the rest are probably going to be the same. The fan is a bit louder than I'd prefer, but definitely not a deal breaker as it's not going into my living room.

Mine is on the way as of today. Did you have to do anything to get Linux installed on your device @semidetached or did you just use a USB stick and it worked as normal?

And ... F320s & NIC sold to me. Thanks @custom90gt , looking forward to receiving them

Thanks for sharing! Just picked up one for myself. I've been looking to move Plex to a dedicated transcoding box (none of my existing servers support QuickSync) and this looks like it'll fit the bill nicely (unless I get extremely unlucky and get one of the AMD models), but based on the fact...

I agree... useful and the right price! Thanks for posting.

Definitely tempting prices. I was quite surprised to find an even better deal when I went to look to see what these normally sell for. NewEgg - $289 new, same 5 year warranty

This has been a crazy ride with GPU prices the last couple of years. Around 12 months ago, I got lucky and found an all in-one tower with a top of the line Intel desktop CPU and a 3080 GPU included for $2k. I bought it, removed the GPU, sold it for $2,200 and put in an older GPU into the tower...

Heck of a deal, thanks for giving us a shot at them!

Do you have to actually be in a Best Buy or you're watching the site for them to drop? Are any of them actually inventoried in stores or all online?
