I have HP oem samsung drives in a dl360 gen9 with p440AR, we purposefully yanked 1 out of 8 drives in raid-5 and stuck an older samsung 850 pro and let it do benchmarks for a week before putting the oem samsung drive back in. Worked flawlessly for a week under 24/7 load as a spare

TLER is not optimized for hardware raid., they are designed to write , in case of error, ignore and continue so to not drop frames. This is not ideal for most raid!

Intel officially craters Xeon pricing I'd like to hear more of these massive price cuts but the article is paywalled? Anyone care to share some of the figures Intel is cutting like 66%? off msrp?

stripe over raid-10 (raid 100) or just concatenate the two raid -10's in the o/s

can you clone the mac address?

i'm running a gtx 1060 6gb mini from zotac that I got for $119 shipped from zotac.com - solid

strip-size = per drive stripe-size = per array

use the bbwc with the ssd's fastpath doesn't help raid-6. i'd also try raid-5 since the chances of drives failing are slim to none. Strip size should be equal to ssd page size. 4K or 16K depending on the drive to minimize write amplification!

You'll need to deal with heat but i'm pretty sure the p420 smart array works fine with active cooling!

make sure the drives wwid is unique!

I tested out samsung 860 512gb in pir8 HP smart carriers with chip(!!) and it was fine in place of one hp 480gb ssd -tested for days. It did not throw errors with the pir8 smart carriers with chip like the dumb smart carrier sleds! p.s. their consumer ssd drives are no better than the standard...

ow I was hoping for a cheaper 1 socket mobo - for desktop usage!

these work great on mac pro 4,1/5,1 with free osx drivers last time i checked. Free osx 10gbe drivers is uncommon!

I got a couple of e5-2630 V4's any thoughts on cheap mobo's that can run them?

i bought a couple of force10 s4810p for $300 and they work pretty good, no web gui, and firmware was a couple year old, but performance was spot on! just make sure you get ipv6 if you think you might need it, and web gui if you fancy that, and make sure firmware is reasonably up to date last...

nope past 30 days..

I got one and it failed to SMART FAILURE and doesn't respond after about 2 weeks of usage :( s4610 3.84tb

as long as that slot is connected to the cpu directly and not through a shared dmi/qpi/IF connected chipset!

you can find s4810p's for $300-450! 48 sfp 10gbe and 4 40g!
