    EU Dell/Gigabyte MT70-HD0 (Cavium ThunderX CN8890)

    Edit: These are the former Online.net/Scaleway ARM64 instances. I would avoid ;) (Pro-tip for equipment decommissioning, remove your DC labels before sending to resellers) Not sure if this is a great deal, but it's certainly an obscure deal. This is the first time I've seen a Cavium ThunderX...

    Looking for more information on Violin Memory PCIe SSD

    Last year I bought two Violin Memory VIO-M1-LP PCIe SSDs from an eBay vendor: Not much information is available on these devices, except some few articles (which read like a press release) from 2013. A year later, Hynix bought Violin's PCIe SSD assets. I couldn't even find the PCI ID of the...

    Hello all, I recently picked up a TX140 S2 motherboard (D3239) for a song, and got about to powering it.

    EU WTB: Cisco Meraki MS120 switch

    Hi, you may remember me as the guy who is developing a custom firmware for the Meraki MS220 switches. There is a thread here about the current progress, but the tl;dr is "it's going pretty well, all things considered" Someone on GitHub recently asked me if the MS120 was supported. They...
