Hi All, I have just gone from a dual redundant 745 chassis to a single PSU 743 SQ Chassis. This chassis has a PWS-865-PQ Power supply, all seems to be working fine and is a VERY quiet server chassis I must say, however I am slightly concerned about one thing, if the system is off the PSU...

Does this card support SGPIO via Sideband for a Supermicro SAS-743-TQ Backplane? I ordered a LSI 3Ware 8087 to Sata with Sideband, but the Sideband connecter isn't wired properly and the cable says "Custom i2c with sideband" on the bag. Where can you get a compatible Forward fanout cable with...

What's the cheapest ideal RAID 1/10 card for using on SSD's or Spinners for an ESXi datastore? Obviously there are SAS2008 based card's out there, but they lack cache and people have caught on to them so are also pricey for what they are. Any ideas suggestions?, BBU not required as server...

I know they can be a bit cheesy and can take up valuable data/bandwidth but would be nice to add a little identity to ourselves, even if the option is just there to link to an external source. I'm awful with names, but always remember a face or a picture.

Been tinkering with one of the servers today as I needed to use a LAN port on the switch and set this box to share IPMI with NIC1, however I cannot get access to IPMI any more!. I have reset CMOS, re-entered details in to the BMC/IPMI section of the BIOS, even tried 3 different MAC addresses...

Sometimes when upgrading from Bios v1 to v2 the onboard Intel NIC ROM's can become corrupted, here is a link to a file from Supermicro to flash the nic's rom files which I have uploaded, this also changes the SVID of the LM chip to be correctly identified in some OS's. Not sure what version...
