    Looking for suggestions on l2 10g switch

    Just as a heads-up this has best offer and the seller usually will take $100 off in this price range via best offer DELL NETWORKING X4012 0CJM5 | eBay I like the MikroTik for home use, but I do not think I would deploy that in a remote data center. That may very well be a misguided personal...

    What's your take on Seagate Enterprise "Hybrid" drives?

    We tried a few. Here's the problem. Why suck so much power? They're small too compared to what you can get for sas or nvme.

    400ft new fiber run thoughts?

    I'd think about what you'll use for 100g and pull that once for 40 now then when you upgrade you won't have to re pull.

    Can you make a switch redundant inputs?

    So I've got a single PSU switch. I'm more worried about the PDU/ source failing than the switch PSU failing. That may be dumb, but it is what it is. Is there a way to put two 120v power inputs into a single PSU? So if one side fails, the other fails over? I know the normal answer is to get a...

    FreeNAS: Best RAID for my array?

    Performance RAID 10 Z2 adds way more overhead. @K D Z3 on that size array is too much! Maybe if you had all 28 drives in the same array. Otherwise just wasting disks. 24 drive + 3 parity + 1 hotspare and you're set. That would let you rebuild immediately with hotspare and 4 drives for...

    Exploring Intel Xeon D Evolution from Xeon D-1500 to Xeon D-2100

    I don't know how to feel. The new ones look like they're in a different performance and power class than the old. I thought it'd be cut and dry more speed and about the same power but that's really not the case. If you're going bigger than ITX anyway then you're also in the territory of E5's...
