    EXPIRED $50: 1.9TB Micron 9200 Pro with Adapter

    Newer firmware improved high queue depth sequential in CDM. Only metric that seems way off is the random read. 700k iops quoted in the datasheet and this is closer to 130k. I'll probably still keep them. 100007C0: 101008S0:

    Brocade ICX Series (cheap & powerful 10gbE/40gbE switching)

    Yes now your tftp server needs to be in the same ip range and subnet as the vif you just set in the previous step. So they can talk. In other words put your tftp machine back to how you normally have it with a 10.0.0.x ip and they should be able to talk.

    You are missing the CIDR suffix. The /24 (in your case). Hence the incomplete command error.

    EXPIRED $50: 1.9TB Micron 9200 Pro with Adapter

    I can test mine this weekend. These drives have the orginal release firmware on them. Looks like theres much more recent firmware out there but I'm unable to find a download anywhere online unfortunately.

    HGST HSH721414AL42M0 14TB SAS 4Kn $88 or less

    I imagine the SMR penalty for WORM data such as media files would be less noticeable. Although I don't have any first hand experience.

    Funny enough these just, as in the last few minutes, dropped back down to their recent sale price of $80/ea.

    Toshiba 14TB SAS MG07SCA14TE 512e $66 NEW

    In the past I wouldn't think twice about buying a SAS drive with a 30 day warranty but the recent deals with a 5 year warranty have me second guessing.. Hm.. How is this still an issue in 2024 lol. Thanks for the heads up.

    EXPIRED Brocade ICX7250-48P ($105/ea OBO + Reasonable Shipping)

    Also noticed the fans have a slight whine to them. Never noticed it on my other 7250-48P though. Oh nice! Didn't notice there was a fan mod for the 7250! I'm going to try this.

    EXPIRED Brocade ICX7250-48P ($105/ea OBO + Reasonable Shipping)

    Received mine today. The moment I saw it only wrapped in bubblewrap I knew the ears were toast. Sure enough one ear was completely folded over. 20 minutes later on the bench vise I got it straightened out :D. Other than that the exterior looks prestine. Haven't powered it up yet.

    Brocade ICX Series (cheap & powerful 10gbE/40gbE switching)

    I'd think you'd eliminate the idle power draw of those PoE chips but thats probably not all that much, maybe 1 to 3 watts. I'd at least unplug one of the 3 fans if not using PoE, that would save you more. I've not removed the PoE daughterboard myself so not sure what consequences that will bring.

    Brocade ICX Series (cheap & powerful 10gbE/40gbE switching)

    I blew up one of those PoE chips on that daughter board that powers a bank of 8 ports when I connected my cable modem to a switch port on my 7250-48P. Switch power cycled itself and everything but to my absolute shock it only took out that PoE chip and everything else was fine. I just lost the...

    Dell Poweredge R240 - Barebones w/ Xeon E-2124 - $180

    Based on the label on the front I'd guess this was used in some sort of (amateur) radio set up. Think repeater site hosting EchoLink, IRLP, APRS, etc.

    Super cheap LSI SAS3 controller

    Haha, I don't have five cards, yet. But the five brackets are basically the same price as one or two on ebay. So why not have some spares for when I do inevitably buy more cards lol.
