Or, is it tricky to install SunRay onto Solaris 11.4? Anyone has a good guess which Solarish might be...

    Dell dual port 6GB SAS PCI-E HBA?

    Anyone using Supermicro SC847E26-JBOD at home?

    I am thinking of buying an SC847E26-JBOD and running it at home. I heard it is a good chassis (can someone confirm). I thought of a Norco 4224 first, but I dont know.

    How to use e3-1245v3?

    I am interested in using a Haswell E3 cpu with integrated graphics. What kind of mobo do I need for that? Does the Supermicro mobo need to be special, or can I use anyone? I want the X10SAT which is similar to X10SAE, but no PCI slots. How does IGP work? I enable it in the BIOS? And if I...
