Limit 5 per customer? But how am I going to make my 25 disk all Optane NAS? SAD.

Oh you know what I think I am confusing this with something else sorry. There is something similar that lets you try and use less lanes for more devices right? Switch vs retimer? I heard those in particular while they let you use more devices/drives/whatever take a performance hit to do. I...

I heard these things suck? <--- actually I think I am mixing these up with something else. Disregard!

Every one of these companies has an e-store though? Doesn't mean you can just buy any part you want from them though. When I contacted SuperMicro for a quote on chassis prices they referred me to a partner. They've never given me a quote directly for any of their "building block" products...

Sorry I can rephrase. You are not the target audience for this hardware. These companies do not care about supporting your needs. It was just sarcasm to point out that we are just playing with company eWaste. We may as well be garbage goblins to these companies.

You call support of the company you purchased your solution from and go through their support system and get it replaced by a qualified engineer. Of course you would have a service agreement with said company. Of course you would never let a support contract lapse and be running your production...

Thank you kindly for this alert! Was waiting forever for these to drop back down to $60

Looks like a limit of 5 per buyer? I had previously bought the same model from this seller and have had no issues over the last six(ish? give or take a month?) months with them. They went through badblocks testing, etc without a single issue. Of course YMMY but I am pleased with what I got...

Backups to NVMe? Damn must be nice LOL Assuming here... To hit such network speeds for a backup solution

I've been looking for this model state side and it's hard to come by for sure. Can pretty much find almost any other combination of ports without PoE or with PoE but different models but can never seem to find this exact one for a reasonable price. There are several on ebay but they are in the...

Hmm used to use Unisphere Service Manager. That was the software tool me used to do a ton of stuff... Including firmware updates to the LCCs/enclosures... But you needed a full VNX setup to log into using USM. Hmm... Same thing for accessing the service LAN connection on the Storage...

Well I suppose I am the old IT guy here. And compliments all around really. All joking and kidding around, really. Just throwing random info out there. I am digging through old files I have and seeing if I can find any relevant nuggets of information that can help control the fans on these disk...

I was reading up on the Windows versions, sounds dangerous but really cool. I hope they are able to get it working without major issues eventually.

Bout to ask you to get on ZOOM or Teams or something if you don't say you figured this out lol

Oh yeah don't even bother. Completely gone. Full Borg. Yeah completely not worth it if you could figure it out. They do still make the product line though, it's Dell Unity now. SPA/SPB - Storage Processor A and Storage Processor B. I mean... Maybe you could build one if you really tried...

Did some digging in old files... Not sure how applicable it is to variations of the shelves over time. The VNX storage capacity can be expanded with three DAE options. The first option is a 2U DAE which can contain up to 25, 2.5 inch, 6 Gb SAS drives. The second option is a 3U DAE which can...

I have a five+ HGST 10TB drives at 30Kish hours each. Bought them on Amazon a couple months ago but I honestly bought more than I really needed. Let me know if you're interested and we could look into what they sell for now. Ran badblocks on all of them without any errors or issues.

I see thanks for the clarification. I've not looked much into raid cards due to all the software raid options out there.

The "modern clean". I mean if you work there I'm sure it feels like a dungeon. I think it was a reaction to whatever chipotle and other similar fast food places consider themselves. "Fast Casual" I think. They along with every other fast food place wanted to not come off as a cheaper and...

@nabsltd equivalent to LSI SAS 9300-8i if in IT mode? That's the HBA I was thinking of I think. I use the Supermicro version in that SM chassis I have. Def not double though if you can get the drives at that price though. Well if anyone gets this deal and doesn't need the cables let me know...
