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

    I think there were just a couple screws holding the board in place and then some unsecured rows of header pins making the electrical connection between the POE board to the main board. Apparently I didn't take any good photos of the interior, just photos of the damage. EDIT: I didn't catch which...

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

    I think this is answered somewhere 5-10 pages back in this thread. Looks like a dead POE board. My first switch came with an error like this. When I opened it up, there was a scorch mark on the POE board. When I took the board out and flipped it over, there was a microchip that had let out the...

    Supermicro C2558 Lan Bypass Motherboard.

    @ericloewe I haven’t had time to play around with the board lately and have no experience with ipmitools. I’ll see what I can figure out next time I All I can tell you is that I can connect through the web management interface just fine. The bios only had options to change the network...

    Supermicro C2558 Lan Bypass Motherboard.

    Here is the board: Here is the only marking on the back: Here is the area with the additional wiring: And one more close-up: When it boots, it shows: "Version 2.16.1243. Copyright (C) 2013 American Megatrends, Inc. Citrix SD-WAN 410 BIOS Date: 10/27/2016 18:10:10 Ver: 6.0c" The BIOS says...

    Supermicro C2558 Lan Bypass Motherboard.

    It’s in a case ATM, but sure, why not. I can probably find time to do so tomorrow.

    Supermicro C2558 Lan Bypass Motherboard.

    I bought one. It does not have the same sticker, but it does have some wires soldered on the back of the board that don’t look like they came from the factory. I also saw the same wires in another photo of these boards when I was first looking into it. In that photo, they were far to long to...

    Tempurature not shown for M1015 / LSI 92xx

    So I did the basic google search on getting the controller temperature and found that the MegaRAID Storage Manager is supposed to show the controller temperature, but mine does not. Does anyone have any experience with this or know a way to retrieve the controller temp from the card outside the...

    Chenbro mITX server chassis

    From what I've seen online, most stores list the first three models as deactivated or discontinued. The SR30169T2 is the only one listed as new. Thanks for trying to get one Patrick. Can you get them to send me one too? :p I'd be interested in how it stacks up to the Lian Li Q08 which looks...

    Chenbro mITX server chassis

    Chenbro used to have a couple mITX cases with 4 hot-swap bays which they've since discontinued. These cases were pretty popular for small file servers. Chenbro has a new mITX case out as a replacement (SR30169) that has 4x3.5 hot swap bays plus 2x2.5 internal. The case also looks like it will be...

    Where can i buy a BR10i bracket?

    Did you find a place to order them? I'm trying to do the same thing, but for the IBM M1015. Patrick, I get the impression you have a few different RAID/HBA cards. Could you post measurements of the spacing on these? I would imagine that they would use the same spacing within a series, ie. all...

    As for TLER, I know that there's a utility that turns TLER on for all connected WD drives (it's called wdtler.exe FYI), but I've never tested it. I have a couple WD20EARS in a mirror and they work great for media storage, but the performance is terrible when compared to my Black series drives...

    How can I share a hard drive with multiple VMs?

    I've been considering installing Hyper-V server so that I can get everything running on one box (yes, I'm new to virtualization). The problem is that I want to have a shared storage drive / array for data files. Is this possible without using VHDs or virtual network shares? From my...
