I live in Folsom. And I have a 24 foot trailer. So I could go get a few for forum members and keep them around for a week or two.
$ 400 does seem a bit high
Here are some pics and background. I did this to find a way to get around the lack of the official cables to be used with the hyperkits and SuperMicro Cards. Right now i only have 3 drive cages and 1 SuperMicro Card.
Back plane. The cable connectors highlighted in yellow are not needed or...
I am selling a 2U Intel 8 x 2.5 Drive cage that has support for 4x 2.5 NVMe drives. You can get it with 1 SuperMicro Card (all i have) for $525 or w/o the card for $350. 4 cables to connect to the NVMe port on the other end are included. Examples of the cards that i have tested and work with...
i have purchased 2 cables that look like that one and they have not worked. Get the funtin adapter, an Intel NVMe Cable. or i have a 2u backplane and cage that you could put 4 drives in (1 with hyper kit 2 with supermacro card) for $350 w/ cables)
Ok I just saw you wanted 24GB/s. So. A forget expanders. And you are looking at very expensive sas drives. I am not sure on price. For $12-15k you could get a server set up like in my F2uSoe posts 2 Mellanox cards (150 each on eBay). The. 2 more cards on you workstation and use 4 active...
Ummmmmm. Why???? Just buy nvme drives and be done with it. More IOPS. Less hassle. Let me explain why
1st expanders kill IOPS. 10-35%. And with one raid card you will max out at about 6GB a second no matter how many dives you have
2nd ok so now no expanders next problem. you will need...
just went back and looked at the total CPU%. for some reason the M drive gives better sqeuentials. I have to ask Alex what the difference is.
perfmon sure does not show 25%. set scale to 30 max to better see the numbers...
Whatcha know, I did have a raid 0 set up with 8 Drives.
TLDR here is the write CPU usage at different stages,
With CDM I have not seen a difference in sequential performance by using more than 1 thread. Thus CPU 0 is maxed

With the 4K and CDM we found the sweet spot at 18...
Last night we took down the config that we used to get 1.5 mil IOPS. we have decided to focus this week on remote speeed. Why limit all those beautiful IOPS to just one server? Let them come out and play.
With the arrival of :
36 port Mellanox SX6036 switch FDR14 (yea we beat our head on...
Yes you can. assign a different IP address to the stand alone computer that has a different 3rd number, like Patrick lists above. assign the IP address of the router as your gateway. you can get that from your computers that use DHCP.
I use Vlans on a the router to do something similar. In...
while i don't have a 1 to 1 comparison, today, i might be able share some light. With 1 FDR14 port these are the speeds i am getting. Mind you these are NVMe drives and it was my 1st ever test.
I should have some 30 SSD drive with RDMA over IB, benchmarks tomorrow.
i just reran w/ 1...
