    $10/TB or less 3, 4, 6 TB SAS drives

    Oops! I forgot that the shipping would depend on where it ships to!

    $10/TB or less 3, 4, 6 TB SAS drives

    Here's some still reasonably priced 6TB SAS drives: https://www.ebay.com/itm/358378394529 $19.99 OBO + shipping, but it doesn't really go up much with additional drives and makes it even better $/TB. EDIT: shipping costs change based on where it's going to. For me it's only $13.88, but will...

    Enterprise SSD "small deals"

    Same here. My order just got refunded today, but was shipped out yesterday and is still scheduled to be delivered tomorrow. I'm assuming that it'll get recalled considering that they relisted it for $744 instead of the $79 that I'd paid.

    Enterprise SSD "small deals"

    I ordered the `Dell 5RJND Samsung MZILG1T6HCJRAD3 MZ-ILG1T60 PM1655 1.6TB 2.5" 24Gbps SAS SSD' listing expecting a cancellation, but also got a shipping notification! Not sure when I'll have a 24Gbps SAS controller (finally got a Tri-Mode, but it's just 12GBps for SAS). Considering the...

    Enterprise SSD "small deals"

    Great! Although not great in that it pushed me over the edge and I just ordered one... Going to pull the motherboard out and swap it out for a slightly older 2011-3 based system. Not that it's all that much of an upgrade really, but it'll be interesting to have an OCP 2.0 slot and the OcUlink...

    Enterprise SSD "small deals"

    Any idea if the OCuLink port that's populated on the motherboard in these is usable? It would be nice to be able to get some NVMe drives connected to it without needing to use that single x16 slot!

    Aerohive (Extreme Networks) APs - No Controller Needed

    Those settings, along with limiting the channel bandwidth to 40MHz instead of 80MHz and moving it to a channel with less interference seems to have done the trick, at least in testing with a handful of clients. I'll swap it out again tomorrow and see if it holds up with 20+ clients and a...

    Aerohive (Extreme Networks) APs - No Controller Needed

    Ok, I was poking around a bit more and found a web site with some info on setting up aerohive APs: https://wifivitae.com/2020/05/14/apos-cfg/ Along with turning off auto channel and power settings, you can also turn off the off-channel scanning: # no radio profile <profile> scan access...

    Aerohive (Extreme Networks) APs - No Controller Needed

    I reset one and brought it back up with a simple config entirely through the CLI, since the cloud config had a bunch of extra things and I wanted to try and isolate the problem. It was pretty stable all day, so I stuck it back in my home network and it melted down again in just a few hours. =(...

    Aerohive (Extreme Networks) APs - No Controller Needed

    I've finally mostly given up on my attempt at an upgrade to 802.11ax from 802.11ac using AP650's; at the very least they've now been removed from the network and my old reliable Ruckus APs put back into service. The biggest annoyance by far was the fact that my laptop would pretty consistently...

    EXPIRED $90 64GB DDR4 ECC

    I did a search and found their main website (Computer Memory Solutions | We Know Data) and they're listed there for the same price. https://www.computermemorysolutions.com/product/64gb-4x16gb-memory-ram-compatible-with-dell-poweredge-r530-ddr4-ecc-reg-for-server-only-by-cms-b102/ There are...

    Dell N2224X-ON Power-Switch 24x 2.5GbE 4x SFP28 25GbE 2x QSFP+ ($257.99)

    That makes sense! That could explain why the N2224X-ON has gotten more expensive; if the cheap spare parts models ran out at some point and we're just back to more regular supply. While the newest version of OS6 that was showing up for the N3224T-ON was 6.7.1.22 from the search, 6.8.1.11...

    Dell N2224X-ON Power-Switch 24x 2.5GbE 4x SFP28 25GbE 2x QSFP+ ($257.99)

    Since the N2224X-ON seems to have jumped up in price quite a bit and I don't really need 2.5G ports I ended up getting an N3224T-ON and so far it seems like a well put together switch. It came with OS6 installed on it, but it seemed to be wiped out when I updated the ONIE install; at least it...

    Comparison: Intel i350-T4 Genuine vs Fake

    I know that this is an ancient thread, but I just waded through it because I'm upgrading my pfSense box and wanted to move from an i340-t4 to an i350-t4 due to SR-IOV support and have another option that I didn't see mentioned. In the distant past I put together a few low-cost packet generator...

    Swapping Hard Drive controller board on a SAS drive? (HGST HUS726060AL5210)

    I finally found my CH341a programmer and haven't even been able to get a dump of the flash, so either I'm doing something wrong, the flash is protected in some way, or the fact that it's soldered onto the board makes it so that hooking up a TSOP clip doesn't work. Next step will be to desolder...

    Swapping Hard Drive controller board on a SAS drive? (HGST HUS726060AL5210)

    I've been upgrading my zfs raidz2 setup from 3TB drives to 6TB drives on the cheap via ancient surplus drives on eBay and it's mostly gone ok in that only two of the ten drives I got were immediately bad. However after getting my new pool up and running I've run into another drive that starts...

    Introduction to the HP t640 Thin client - your cheap little AMD NUC7 alternative

    The AMD GX-420GI APU "Brown Falcon" core only supports speeds up to DDR4-1866 from the specs and that's as fast as the t630 would recognize, even with the faster RAM that HP provides as stock.

    Introduction to the HP t640 Thin client - your cheap little AMD NUC7 alternative

    A note about the `Upgrade Compatability with the t630' section: The t630 uses DDR4 memory, not DDR3 like the t730. It only supports DDR4-1866, the unit's I've had came with DDR4-2133 SODIMMs.
