    well bad news, hp quad nic installed in slot 6 : not detected at all in proxmox slot 7 : detected this alone should mean the motherboard is the issue i think

    chinese x11ssm-f pcie lanes issue

    My situation is different i think, So Slot6 = dual intel nic 82756 chip > the troubled pcie lane slot7 = hp quad nic huawei modem, when plugged to slot6 = barely any tx traffic, below 500, client wont detect it. slot7 = normal traffic, client detects it. Both has gen2 applied, and aspm...

    chinese x11ssm-f pcie lanes issue

    Ah you mean i should load it with traffic. I did unfortunately. I plugged it to a modem but theres barely any traffic, and my clients didnt detect it. The same modem plugged to the quad nic in slot7 works right away,

    chinese x11ssm-f pcie lanes issue

    You mean i need to reboot? done it 2-3 times but its still the same. Disabling aspm is supposed to solve the power saving issue, but it didnt help either

    chinese x11ssm-f pcie lanes issue

    So i got this chinese x11ssm-f. Which has chinese writing during bootup, But all functions like IPMI work properly so i didnt complain until the return window is closed. Or so i thought.. I tried installing a 85276 based dual nic to the pcie lanes 1 and 3 from cpu (2 is reserved for quad...

    Brocade ICX Series (cheap & powerful 10gbE/40gbE switching)

    Hi, I havent seen it mentioned, would a 6510 work with licensing trick as well? It's not on the compatibility list

    Haunted? SC847 - won't power up in garage rack, fine on dining table

    I ran into the similar issue today, although with different casing (inwin 1u) When installed in rail, it wont turn on at all. But when placed outside the rail it turns on. And the culprit was gpu riser cable The bent side from the cable was hitting the cover So somehow it was shorting the...

    EU HGST 4U SAS3 12GB/s Storage Enclosure 60 bays £299

    @Rand__ or anyone, any idea if there's any third party CMA that's compatible with hgst 4u60? I asked racksolutions but theirs arent compatible.

    SM x11sca-f + icydock dual U2 enclosure

    I was talking about the supermicro NVME switches, they aren't that expensive, mostly below 200 bucks. Are we talking about the same thing? Curious about the bottleneck issue, which card did you use? Icydock doesn't have the one that is compatible with 22110 unfortunately so i'd need separate...

    SM x11sca-f + icydock dual U2 enclosure

    Edit : Sorry just noticed you said u2 drives + dock m2 drives + carriers. X11sca-f doesnt have bifurcation though so i'd need carriers with plx chip or something (forgot the name)\ But I like that idea, since rack-wise it'd be easier to access them and i wont need to take the whole machine...

    SM x11sca-f + icydock dual U2 enclosure

    https://www.content.shi.com/SHIcom/ContentAttachmentImages/SharedResources/PDFs/Sandisk-012717-4U60_CompatGuide.pdf 4i4e is mentioned here, which is a bit odd, since technically only the "e" could work for the enclosure so most likely it should work with x4 lanes, but since there are no 4i4e...

    SM x11sca-f + icydock dual U2 enclosure

    This the main OS drive unfortunately so it can't be sacrificed. It also has partition for VM images so it needs to be nvme speed. And it's too risky to combine the content with the U2 drive since the U2 drive gets written periodically I'd rather lower and split the card or move it to the x4...

    SM x11sca-f + icydock dual U2 enclosure

    It's low priority drives and it's not in raid mode or anything like that, just drivepool, max capacity is 60, but it's half full and probably gonna keep it that way So assuming max speed of HDD is 550 Mbps, even if all 30 were pulled together it'd need 16.5 Gbps (most likely wont happen) A...

    SM x11sca-f + icydock dual U2 enclosure

    It's HGST 4u60 JBOD right now it's working with LSI 3008 8e, with 2 QSFP+ cable, but I pulled one of them awhile ago and it's still working so I'd assume it'd work with 4x lanes.. drives are 3.5 inch Got any specific model for this NVME switch? But actually only 10gbase-t could work with Gen3...

    SM x11sca-f + icydock dual U2 enclosure

    So i guess i need at least something like 9400 8i8e then? it could work partially right meaning i could plug just one each outside and inside? just googled it a bit, apparently it needs PCIE 3.1 while x11sca-f is still PCIE 3.0, googled again and somebody says it's backward compatible but it...

    SM x11sca-f + icydock dual U2 enclosure

    Indeed, intel still the king of transcoding unfortunately, last time i checked emby transcoding was still better using intel than amd, Anyways I might find the solution to my problem, So just found out my HGST 4u60 jbod doesnt actually need both x4 lanes, So something like LSI 9300 4e4i might...

    SM x11sca-f + icydock dual U2 enclosure

    Thats the thing, the manual doesn't mention anything about this Sorry should have explained it, I have 2 10G switches, so I need dual 10G NIC. And the LSI card is for HGST 4u60 which is a 60 bay HDD rack. I'm not sure if there are x4 card alternatives for these.. So yeah the lanes usage are...

    SM x11sca-f + icydock dual U2 enclosure

    By m2 adapter you mean i should be using the intel nvme drive on sata slot correct? Well its for image booting so it needs to be above sata speed so im afraid its not an option. Its mean to be a drive with as few write as possible to preserve the OS. While the U2 drives are drives that still...
