Thanks for your comments! There's a lot I don't know about Nvidia's non-consumer hardware. So I want whatever the 4090 or 5090 equivalent is or just one of those cards itself. And then I have to find a rackmount case with risers that lets me somehow cram 3-4 of them in a single PC. Anyone know...

What's a 4090 equivalent A-series card then? Sounds like a bad deal if you don't do vGPU. Dedicated GPUs I see. So you can't share GPUs between VMs if you don't wanna stream. That puts a wrench into all this. I'd wanna get a rackmount case, but without some clever PCIe riser solution, I'm not...

Thanks for posting! This is some great info :). CPUs I don't have much insight into Intel parts. I was looking at either the AMD Epyc 9684X or two of the 9384X because they have 3D V-Cache like my other AMD Ryzen processors: But if they're a performance degradation; only turbo'ing to...

Hi all! I'm trying to get info on centralized gaming PCs and wanted to know what to expect. Do any of you guys have systems like that at home? What hardware are you using? How are people connecting to the PCs? What game performance are you targeting?

My applications are SMB and iperf3. I do have MTU 9000 (Linux) and packet of 9014 (Windows). I don't know anything about IRQ mapping, but I did some TCP tweaks in TrueNAS SCALE; although, I can't remember what they were.

I tested with 10 parallel iperf3 streams with -P and saw no difference from non-parallel. What are these system specs for what performance? Both machines are 16-core AMD Zen 3 with the same ConnectX-6 cards running 2x25Gb links on separate networks for SMB Multichannel (not relevant except to...

In that case, should I assume any machine with a 25Gb NIC should be capable of maxing out its `iperf3` tests with another 25Gb NIC?

My bad. I took it for granted that NIC benchmarks probably use iperf3. I first noticed slowness when copying files off the NAS. fio benchmarks are showing over 20GB/s (bytes) read and write with ZFS cache disabled. Testing with iperf3, that's where I saw a discrepancy. I upgraded iperf3 and...

I read this review about the Supermicro AOC-S25G-b2S 25GbE NIC: https://www.servethehome.com/supermicro-aoc-s25g-b2s-25gbe-nic-review/ In there, the final numbers for transfer speeds are well below the limits of 25Gb let alone 50Gb (3.75GB/s is only 30Gb): I was running into some issues...

I'm having issues logging in as any user not `ADMIN`. Has anyone had this issue before? Looks like my firmware was v1.20. After upgrading it to v1.33, that didn't fix the issue Firmware Source: https://www.supermicro.com/wdl/Firmware/JBOD/CSE-PTJBOD-CB3/

Ah, I have to bridge these two wires for 10 seconds:

I bought one of these and set the admin username and password, but I can't login again. There's no way to use a USB boot key to change the IPMI password, so how would I do it?

It's for real! And yeah, 20A like I said: https://www.corsair.com/us/en/p/accessories/CP-8920275/corsair5v-load-balancer-aca-a-100w-capacity-cp-8920275?srsltid=AfmBOoqn9shTveCzTT-EyvbsjE8ZcRha8UcL0hh3ZVpNhTqS-yKCXY6ICdY That means I can do 1 set of 16 drives for each of these and have enough...

I think I found it! https://forum.corsair.com/forums/topic/172592-introducing-the-corsair-5v-psu-load-balancer/ Anyone familiar with this product? Looks EXACTLY like what I'm looking for _and_ it has the PCIe connectors to boot! First, I think this product is vaporware, but let's say it does...

I need at least 50A for all these drives. Ideally, 60A or more. It's headroom more than anything. I saw 4 models on Amazon when I was searching, and I was searching for 4 days before posting here...

Thanks! I checked the video, but that converter, like many others, only does 6A. To get a total of 50A, I'd need a bunch of these. That's simply not isn't feasible.

Unless I'm not understanding something, the drives are on a backplane, but SSDs still power via 5V rather than 12V. I've not seen a backplane that does step-down conversion. Every one I've seen takes Molex plugs directly. Here's an example of a Supermicro backplane: Just like my Storinator's...

tl;dr I want to find a way to take the 12V power from a 4-pin Molex plug, bypass the PSU's 5V rail, and step down that 12V into 5V. I don't wanna use the PSU's 5V rail because it only has 250W available, but my 12V rail has 1000W available. I figure I can use the 12V rail somehow myself, but I...

I can't seem to find this board (CSE-PTJBOD-CB3) for sale anywhere. Is it still something you can buy, or you have to get it in a case?

I'm in the same boat. Found this thread talking about something I wanted to know. I have a bunch of Crucial MX500 drives and never realized their TRIM support doesn't work with LSI controllers until today after I already sunk over $25K into this NAS. I'm wondering if SATA to SAS interposers...
