    Newegg(US) - Seagate Barracuda 24TB $250!!

    Unfortunately this claim is useless. Barracudas and Barracudas can be drastically different. For example, the Barracuda 8TB and Barracuda 24TB share nothing but the green Barracuda label. They were made from different assembly line using different technologies and different parts. The former is...

    Find a 1U breakout board first, then find a compatible used PSU. I think many of them don't have 5V output, so if you can share what you really need from the PSU, just 12V or you want high current 5V as well. Or is it possible to split the load? Get a low cost regular PSU, then put all the...

    Need help: HP DL180 G9 compatible CPUs

    Update: My guess was correct. Motherboard with SKU 779094-001 supports up to 105W CPU (2660v4) after upgrading to latest ME firmware. One must download the cp029724.exe or CP028985.scexe from the HPE link in #6, and boot off pre-2.5x System ROM. (It's possible to switch to an old ROM from...

    Need help: HP DL180 G9 compatible CPUs

    OK, after chewing more results here's my guess. The v3 only motherboard supports 105W v4 CPUs after a ME firmware upgrade. The v3/v4 motherboard supports any v4 CPUs with no power limit. Upgrading ME firmware requires a pre-2.5x BIOS, and once the ME is upgraded the motherboard should boot with...

    Need help: HP DL180 G9 compatible CPUs

    I did update the BIOS to a fairly new version (somewhere in 2021). Some say that there are 2 motherboard SKUs and one of them is V3 only, and the other is V3/V4. I don't know if that's true. Maybe I should try a 105W CPU like 2660v4? (One of the ebay sellers did tell me 2660v4 might work in my...

    Need help: HP DL180 G9 compatible CPUs

    Got a DL180 G9 a while ago. It came with dual E5 2630v3 pre-installed. I'm trying to upgrade the CPU. I've checked the specs on HP websites, showing it supporting up to E5-2680v4 and E5-2695v4, so I bought a E5-2680v4. Server didn't boot. Found someone saying some models of the motherboard...

    Why Use QSFP-40G-UNIV Transceiver for 40G Network? | FS Community This should explain a lot. Previously you'd need to run a MPO 4 pairs cable but you can use a UNIV with a regular 1 pair fiber.

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

    Got mine on ebay at $100 (best offer) + free shipping. You can search and send your offers. 24p would be more expensive but 48p should be cheap.

    Hey, I just got some of these but they seem to have 4 leads (red, yellow, black, blue). Any suggestion on how to wire them to ICX6450-48P? Thanks!

    HAProxy or something like that (I use nginx). Do you announce static IP range through your ISP? Because if you only have 1 IP and serve multiple websites I imagine you'd use some kind of front end proxy to route traffic?

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

    I wouldn't do this as this sounds a bit overkill, but you definitely can. I would rather put all websites (assuming VMs) behind a front end gateway, and do ACL/proxy on the gateway.

    Just bought a 6450-48p on ebay with a $100 offer. They seem to have more than 100 units available. I'm not linking to it to reduce STH effect but it should be very easy to find. In case anyone is looking to buy one.
