    CWWK/Topton/... Nxxx quad NIC router

    Googling your error led me to a kernel bugzilla entry which isn't a direct hit for your problem but is playing around in the same area. It appears to have finally been patched in kernel 7.2 so that might be worth trying if you are able to.

    $29 Embedded Epyc 3151 ASRock Rack EPYC3151D4I-NL

    I'd be quite seriously pissed off if updating my BMC firmware reset the passwords/usernames. So here I am 100 miles away from the machine and needing to update it for good $reasons and I do so and now my credentials don't work any more? I think not.

    need help choosing a raid controller card for my server

    I had a look at the specs of an H700 and it is PCIe 2.0 so quite bandwidth limited. From another post it would appear the OP has an E5-26xx-v2 based system which would be PCIe 3.0 so they'd be better off looking at an H730 which are much more modern and much better cards and also come with up to...

    need help choosing a raid controller card for my server

    Also, if you aim to use a hardware RAID card I think you can do a lot better than an H700 as those are ancient.

    UK Okdo (Radxa) 8GB Rock 5B £107.12 + VAT (£128)

    RS Components in the UK are listing an Okdo Rock 5B SBC with 8GB for £107.12 which appears to be a misprice. The 4GB version is £116, the 16GB version is £195 so realistically you'd expect the 8GB version to be somewhere in the middle at about £160 which is what other sites are selling it for...

    EU Gigabyte Mainboard MC12-LE0 Re1.0 AMD B550 AM4 Ryzen

    In linux after it reboots, does dmesg -T | grep -i reason say anything useful?

    If it reboots "almost straight away" then I think it's unlikely to be thermals. My first thought would be PSU. And, yes, anything that causes your machine to reboot unexpectedly needs fixing even if it only happens under certain circumstances as you never know when you'll hit that in real life.

    If you had $2000-$2500, what would you build or buy?

    OTOH, once you have spent the $2500 on Claude, it's gone and you have nothing to show for it. If you spend it on hardware then at least you still have hardware with some residual value left over at the end.

    LSI RAID card IT to IR mode for ESXi or Proxmox

    Generally the Dell H3xx series of boards are gutless and underpowered for hardware RAID and have no onboard memory. You need to look at the H7xx series to get a decent card.

    So what does this mean?

    I'd look at the logs and see if there was a problem that is now resolved. That's about the only reason I can think of for a "failure" to be given a green tick and appear good. Perhaps it just needs acknowledging?

    [Intel NUC8] Anybody know the thickness of the thermal pads on the eDRAM and PCH dies?

    Be aware that the better the thermal pad conductivity, the less compressible the material is likely to be. I would guess for this purpose you'd want to use a thermal pad with the best conductivity that you can get, perhaps something like Gelid Ultimate or Extreme (not as good). I recently...

    How is everyone setting up Local AI in thier home labs? Idea thread.

    I think DDR3 RAM will be just too slow to be useful for this. DDR3 is about half the speed of DDR4 which in turn is about 1/3rd the speed of DDR5.

    Dell VEP/VMWare Edge/Velo Cloud SD-WAN/VeraCloud VEP1400/VEP1400-X firewall units

    I don't understand why these things are so cheap in the USA and so expensive over here in .uk. I checked Ebay UK and the cheapest there is a 640 for £360 (US$480) and there are barely any others for sale - which probably explains why they're so expensive.
