Thought I'd share an odd experience I had, in hopes that it helps people. I use an offbrand tiny PC; an acepc T11 as a backup destination. I was using a seagate 5tb 2.5" external drive, and when it died I replaced with a 3.84tb MMicron Pro 5400, moving to the internal 2.5" bay. This led to...

No OS, but I figure that there is a pretty good chance there is a code in the BIOS. Feels like a pretty good price for a scalable workstation. https://www.ebay.com/itm/385294567157 More than 10 available. 8 more as of Monday AM...

Hyper-V 2016, LSI9286-cv8e with JBOD enabled to a xyratex 12x3.5" enclosure. I've run this for years with 12 Seagate 2tb drives, all as a storage pool with dual parity. No issues at all. Drives are all 512b drives. The pool has physical sector size=4kb, logical sector size=512b. Just looked at...

Just had $145 autoaccepted for this; https://www.ebay.com/itm/165531013825 Thinkstation P330 I5-8500, 8 gb ram, 500gb rust. Easy to put a low profile gpu in, with 1 x 16 slot and 2 x4 slots, one is x16 mechanical. I believe the x16 is direct to CPU, the other two are via PCH will support an...

Looking for ideas or reccommendations. Currently run Plex on windows as a H-V guest. The host is a 2U intel server, can do a GPU but currently do not have one. (Need to check the max supply from the motherboard, but I have a port and cable that can supply a GPU). I'm looking for either...

I run my plex as a guest on H-V 2016, currently under windows but that could be changed. I'm thinking about picking up a card to help transcode, as well as play with data analysis. I'm having trouble telling if I (still?) need vGPU licenses to use something like a Tesla P4, which I think I...

Ok, I'm confused by an "extra" MAC showing up on an intel IOM 82599 Dual port card ( AXX10GBNIAIOM ). From the switch, MAC-Address Port Type Index VLAN 001e.67b5.c5d2 1/2/1 Dynamic 22200 1 001e.67b5.c5d0 1/2/1 Dynamic...

I'm making the jump from 1U to 2U, meaning I now can look at PCIe storage. I'm using a S2600GZ, which looks like bifurcation isn't readily accessible via bios, so that constrains me somewhat on the simple 4x x4 M2 NVME storage options. I run Server 2016, using storage spaces. I know the...

I'm posting this for posterity, because people been looking for this cable for at least 8 years. https://community.intel.com/t5/Server-Products/SSD-SATA-power-cable-for-S2600GZ/td-p/240224 If you want this cable, and don't want to cobble one together, the S2600WT cable kit A2UCBLSSD is still...

So about a month ago I picked up a Unifi CK2+ from ebay, for $130 or so. Got it, had drive in it, so reset, configured, replaced my docker controller and docker video with protect. All works great, no complaints at all. Just last night I updated the CK2+ to the new firmware, and was poking...

(For background, see here: https://forums.servethehome.com/index.php?threads/diagnosing-sfp-dac.30064/ ) I got refunded for my purchase and seller doesn't want them back, so if someone wants them for shipping, I'd rather than than toss them out. My icx6450 can talk to all 4 transceivers, but I...

Ok, bought 2 5m SFP+ DACS off of ebay, described as 5m passive DAC cables. They are labled as SFP-H10GB-ACU10M I plug them into an ICX6450, it detects them as follows: Port 1/2/3: Type : 10GE Active Twinax 10m (SFP +) Vendor: CISCO-TYCO Version: A Part# ...

Brocade ICX 6450-48P/48- 48-Port Switch | eBay 8 remainging. Here's the thing: Seller sent me a PM for watching at 15% off, 95.17 plus shipping. I'd guess they would take less. I don't really need to replace the s2500 I got 6 months ago, so....

I've got a H-V 2016 node which runs VMs and I use as a file server. I'm going to migrate to a 10gbe connection, and planning on using only a single connection for management/vm/file shares. Aside from making sure that I enable SRV-IO on the Virtual Switch and enable hardware acceleration on...

I have an Intel r1208GZ unit that was OEM EMC Avamar, and came with EMC handles that don't work with the intel rail kit. Does anyone have a handle set lying around?
