I'm not familiar with these at all (neither the INTEL ones), but isn't it basically 16GB DDR4 RAM + 16GB SLC Flash, as the Datasheet indicates ?
The only Server in the linked List that I have that might fit (Tyan-like) is the HYVE...
So, thanks again for the Tips here.
In my Case, /etc/swampd/config.json had no effect :( .
I had to write directly to /usr/share/swampd/config.json.
I had the fans ramping up/down all the Time due to the NIC temperature being on the "Edge" (no pun intended).
I feel that the Fan Controller...
How well does that Feature work ? When searching manually I remember that eBay Search ... sucks. Partly because Sellers list their items incorrectly (same with Quantities, multi-Item Listings and such, plus sometimes not even indicating Unbuffered or ECC in the Product Name or even worse...
If that 5100 3.84TB has no possibility of getting the right Firmware, would it be somehow possible to dump EEPROM / Flash using some I2C/SPI Programmer and periodically reset the Drive (including all the Smart Statistics) every 2 Years or so ?
Have you looked at how much MPO Breakout Cables cost ? Let alone that I would need to pull like 4x24F or more to achieve the same as I have now ?
I saw some LR4 Lite for like 30 EUR / each on eBay. That's relatively expensive but Way less than those MPO Cables that take a bunch of Fibers.
I just pulled a 20 meter SMF (Single Mode Fiber) through my Loft ... 20 Meter DAC isn't an Option.
Between Switch and NIC, yeah, DAC all the Way, though those are THICK Cables.
For long Runs, Fiber is the only Option.
Uhm ... It might be worth looking into it, after carefully inspecting the Code to make sure that there are no Surprises (recent Repository, basically no Stars), but from a quick Look there doesn't seem to be a lot going on, minus a lot of Commands to be run of course.
FEC not being a Deal breaker is definitively a positive Sign, thanks :).
However 200+ EUR for that Kit is a lot.
Aliexpress has something comparable-ish for 90 EUR all inclusive, not sure how good or bad it is though:

How would I even do that ? Where ? Is it a special Firmware Programmer Kit or something ?
While Google AI Search is Garbage 80+% of the Time, so not to be taken as an absolute Source of Truth by any Means, it seemed to suggest some Issues related to "Protocol" and that thee CWDM4 Transceiver...
Just a word of caution for those, like me, that naively thought that also CWDM4 QSFP28 Transceivers could be used.
Unfortunately not with the Mellanox SX6036 Switch:(.
I naively thought that CWDM4 being also a Long Range Variant should be compatible with the Switch.
Big Mistake o_O. The...
I already began splitting the RAM I had across several systems, and the Trend is going to continue for a while unfortunately :(. I would guess he does the same.
Not sure how that would work in your Favor, because either your Credit Card or Paypal will then do the Currency Conversion. That will also be the Case when doing a Bank Transfer for that Matter. So if the Exchange Rate changes between thee 2 Dates (Purchase and Refund), you will get back the...
