Thanks! Yes I did RMA it. It is on the way back to B&H. Meanwhile I will search for it from the local second hand market. You are right. Not changing the model number creates a lot of confusion. It shouldn't happen
Interesting, this is exactly where I ordered. Even more interesting when I emailed them to ask if they sent me the wrong model they replied as below:
I also found this post which is exactly what I am encounting now...
Thank you very much for taking the effort to share the photo! The difference I can see is that mine doesn't have the corner cut indicated in the photo below. That's the part that collides with CPU heatsink. I also took a further look and noticed this model is only compatible with HP Z2 Mini...
Indeed I took a careful look and I feel that B&H might have sent a wrong model ... It looks like this. The model number printed on the board is FMB2213A. I didn't se any model number 56Q71AA.

I bought this HP 10Gb Ethernet Flex IO 56Q71AA from B&H Photo hoping that it would fit my HP elitemini 800G9. Sadly it doesn't fit. The heatsink and the chip module collides with the CPU heatsink and there is no room to fit. It seems HP has changed the design but still use the 56Q71AA as the...
Buy a couple of Intel Optane drives for metadata and slog vdev, you will have better experience with the NAS. They don't have to be big in size. A few hundreds for metadata and 32-64gb for slog should be enough
Looks like it shows higher score after disable the NVME power management by: echo 0 | sudo tee /sys/module/nvme_core/parameters/default_ps_max_latency_us

In ubuntu I get the following output and it seems to be much lower than the crystaldiskmark output? Am I running the fio command in a wrong way which is not comparable to the crystaldiskmark test?

Thank you but may I know why? I am using something like this now and it works perfectly fine:

is there anything wrong I am not aware of?
Thank you for introducing this MB to me. I didn't know the existence of the motherboard with such new connectors. Will definitely think about this.
8 NVMe ports PCIe 5.0 x4 via 4 MCIO connectors
May I ask you one more question - what CPU do you recommend for the system using this X13SEM-F MB?
I have 6x 6.4TB NVME (U.3/U.2) enterprise disks and I would like to use them in a TrueNAS Scale server as my main NAS. I am contemplating the motherboard and CPU choice. My main goal is to have low power consumption yet good read/write performance. There are a few things in my consideration set...
