    USB3.2x2 10GbE adapters

    As I noted under the answer to my superuser question (hi servethehome!) that answer is not quite satisfactory: benchmarks note over 8Gbps rather than 6Gbps. I rather believe the patents encumbering 10GbE made it uneconomical to do it. However, they expired last summer so I expect to see...

    Cheap 802.3bz switch or transciever?

    Finally USB to 802.3bz adapters are available (2.5gbps at 50, 5gbps below 100 USD) I am wondering whether there are cheap solutions to switch 'em. Netgear has a few but even the GS110MX with only two multigig ports and eight gigabit is 200 USD. The cheapest multigig capable SFP+ transciever I...

    Bonding four plus one gbit/s connections?

    I am looking at the Delock 62966 / IO Crest SY-HUB24047 this is a USB 3.0 to 4 x 1gbit/s Ethernet adapter, I believe they are Realtek RTL8153. The laptops are running Windows 10 Pro and they have a native Intel gigabit Ethernet to begin with. Would it be possible to create a 5gbit/s connection...

    M28E1 shallower version?

    The M28E1 is 200mm deep -- the 2.5" disks are only 100mm deep and the fan is 25mm tops. I wonder whether there is a similar 8-to-2 enclosure which is a) shallower b) actually manufactured now :)

    I am considering making a small (20L) SSI EEB capable tower case

    There are a lot of factors -- there's no "better" option. Some of the priorities might include noise, cost, longer term maintenance and so forth.

    I am considering making a small (20L) SSI EEB capable tower case

    The Cerberus X is built with very different priorities and while it is possible it could accomodate a dual socket SSI EEB motherboard (305mm × 335mm is the max after all) the front PSU location would collide with socket #2 (and in general, with any motherboard longer than 271.5mm but there are...

    I am considering making a small (20L) SSI EEB capable tower case

    With good airflow. Inspired by the Silverstone Fortress cases (and a little by the PS13). If this interests the esteemed forum members please head over to EATX / SSI EEB motherboard in SFF? A Fortress inspired case idea and let's chat.

    Supermicro SYS-E300-8D

    I meant to use a video card which needs 1 PCIe slot but 2 PCIe slot covers because, well, it's a video card :) Low height, double wide.

    Supermicro UP 1U server with dual nvme advice

    RAX XT10-1130V6-NVME you need to add a dual 10gbit card. Otherwise, as far as can I see, it ticks everything on your list and it's cheap E3 based -- even with the added cost of the 10gbit it's cheap. Very likely it's the X11SSL-nF motherboard in a 113MFAC2 chassis, both Supermicro. It's very...

    Supermicro SYS-E300-8D

    I'm looking at this chassis -- even if not the entire pre-built machine -- I am planning on using an X11SSV-Q because it can be fed by 12V alone and an i5 7600T -- and then an 1050 Ti LP. I know, it's sacrilege but I am looking at modding the chassis a little. Could someone who has the chassis...

    14" deep 4U case?

    I saw the front access one, that's not a good fit for the planned usage (I plan to mount the thing vertically under the desk so the front will be blocked, not airtight but not enough space for cables). The 438 is 15", we have 15" findings already :) I have an Ikea desk with a metal skeleton and...

    IPC has RPC-432 Short Depth 4U Rackmount Server Chassis Rack SSD Case Support 13" Add-on Cards hrm this is 15.25" but it has 120mm fans and SSI EEB support and is cheap. This might be the winner!
