Thanks for getting back to me. I think PPPoE is single threaded, yes (for this I largely just followed instructions). At the moment I'm set to host type for the CPU with a single core and four threads. I don't think it's N100 related either, but it's my first journey into both virtualization...

The the first post for images of A, B, C cases

Got mine direct from CWWK a week or so ago. Quick delivery, "C" type case without asking, thermals look good - very pleased. I'm having a few LAN issues now, and I'm not sure whether it's the N100, Proxmox, pfSense or my setup. I'm therefore not sure where to ask, but hoping someone here has...

Sounds like how the NUC motherboards work - either via a barrel connector OR 4-pin micro(?) molex and a fairly wide range of voltages. Built a similar NUC rackmount machine over lockdown with a mean well supply. All fairly simple, but had to get acquainted with lots of different dupont and JST...

Silly question - does it come with a VESA mount? Thinking about bolting one to a rack shelf and putting it on top of the rack. Also thinking about running pf/opn on Proxmox and migrating my Home Assistant over from an Unraid VM. I've only ever run my firewall on baremetal, so would be...

I'm looking to migrate from a Dell R210 II to an N100 - mainly to make it more power efficient, but also to free up space and make things quieter. Thanks for all the info supplied - trawling through AliExpress is a nightmare! I currently have openVPN set up and connect to it periodically -...

Wow that's expensive! Seriously though, I'm running Plex in a docker, and I think that currently the only way to get hardware transcoding is via an internal GPU. Although I may be very wrong...

Just to finish up on this - I've got it all sorted for now. I'd been sent a faulty SQ power supply. The company replaced it, and everything works fine and quiet enough. Thank you for all your help on this. I can finally add/swap drives without risk of putting my back out! When I get a...

So I took the -N24 PDB out and put the 2824 in (tidying up some cabling on the way. Unfortunately the -SQ power supply will still not power up my Supermicro X10SL7-F motherboard. I can get access to the IPMI, but LE6, the Power Status LED on the mobo is red. The manual states "When the LED...

Cheers guys - I went for the 2824 in the end, simply because I could get it next day (today, hopefully), rather than a 7+day wait. Was a bit of a coin toss though, but I might be able to get the noise down to a bearable level before Christmas... Off to figure out how to mod the PDB cover now.

After contacting SM support, they kindly got back to me saying that the -N24 PDB and the -SQ PSU are "mechanically compatible". They have gone on to ask if I see a light on the PSU, and if other PSUs work. I'm inclined to think that the FAQ above is incorrect. Servercase.co.uk (who seem good...

Thanks anyway though

Hi - need to replace the -N24 PBD in my SC846 chassis so that I can run an SQ power supply. Having trouble finding one, so if you've got one you don't need...

That's what I'm led to believe - looks like I'm going shopping (again!)...

According to this SM FAQ, but I've read otherwise. Might contact Supermicro to confirm.

Well, that didn't work. I get a yellow light on the PSU (not sure whether that's its normal colour), lights on the mobo and access to the IPMI. No fans spin (including the PSU fan). Triggering power up/cycle on the IPMI does nothing. Can't think there are any settings, so I've either picked...

Yeah, the shipping to the UK is more than twice the price of the unit, so I'm setting up an eBay search. It's obviously still not huge case, but I've spent far too much on this already...

:) I know the feeling. I don't suppose anybody's fashioned a mounting shelf to go above the expansion ports (where there's a grill?

If you've got any expansion ports free, you could get a couple of these (or similar) fairly cheaply... https://www.amazon.com/Kingwin-Tray-Less-Expansion-Optimized-Transfer/dp/B07484V1CD/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?ie=UTF8&qid=1512742364&sr=8-1-spons&keywords=pci+2.5+drive&psc=1

Thanks - I'll give it another look over the weekend.
