    Comparison: Intel i350-T4 Genuine vs Fake

    I know that this is an ancient thread, but I just waded through it because I'm upgrading my pfSense box and wanted to move from an i340-t4 to an i350-t4 due to SR-IOV support and have another option that I didn't see mentioned. In the distant past I put together a few low-cost packet generator...

    Swapping Hard Drive controller board on a SAS drive? (HGST HUS726060AL5210)

    I finally found my CH341a programmer and haven't even been able to get a dump of the flash, so either I'm doing something wrong, the flash is protected in some way, or the fact that it's soldered onto the board makes it so that hooking up a TSOP clip doesn't work. Next step will be to desolder...

    Swapping Hard Drive controller board on a SAS drive? (HGST HUS726060AL5210)

    I've been upgrading my zfs raidz2 setup from 3TB drives to 6TB drives on the cheap via ancient surplus drives on eBay and it's mostly gone ok in that only two of the ten drives I got were immediately bad. However after getting my new pool up and running I've run into another drive that starts...

    Introduction to the HP t640 Thin client - your cheap little AMD NUC7 alternative

    The AMD GX-420GI APU "Brown Falcon" core only supports speeds up to DDR4-1866 from the specs and that's as fast as the t630 would recognize, even with the faster RAM that HP provides as stock.

    Introduction to the HP t640 Thin client - your cheap little AMD NUC7 alternative

    A note about the `Upgrade Compatability with the t630' section: The t630 uses DDR4 memory, not DDR3 like the t730. It only supports DDR4-1866, the unit's I've had came with DDR4-2133 SODIMMs.

    cheap used or new ssd at least 120GB

    Or two people who saw a good deal and bought most of them to resell. Or rather, it was just one guy that bought nearly all of them in two transactions. I suppose it's entirely possible they were buying for business use and I'm just being grumpy though.

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

    Just interested in poking around and seeing how they've implemented things. My`day job' has consisted of writing software for switches that have mainly had Broadcom ASICs in them (including the Helix4 that the 7250 uses), so I'm somewhat familiar with poking around the ASIC registers via...

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

    So it seems that I've found yet another rabbit hole to fall into care of STH! This time my home network is getting a workover. I've already got the pfSense box. A pair of R500 access points are showing up today and I bought a cheap Mokerlink PoE unmanaged switch before I ran into this...

    2M QSFP+ to 4 x SFP+ breakout cable - $7

    I’ve used cables like these to connect my dual port QSFP ConnectX2 cards to switch SFP+ ports using the first channel. You end up with a lot of extra cable just hanging around, but it’s a lot cheaper than buying an adapter and a regular SFP+ DAC cable.

    HP 649281-B21 Infiniband FDR/EN 10/40GB $50+ (ConnectX-3?)

    I've got a pair of older ConnectX-2 QDR dual-port cards cards with full height brackets that I could swap for these. Hopefully shipping for a pair of them is reasonable!

    X3470, 2Rx8 PC3L-10600R DDR3

    I've got a bunch of semi-random things to get rid of. Maybe someone's still got some older gear they'd like to upgrade! :: Intel Xeon X3470 quad core Socket 1156 CPU: $50 shipped Turbos up to 3.6GHz on a single core, 3.467GHz on 2 or 3.2GHz on 3 or 4. Not quite the fastest socket 1156...
