Hey thanks for the heads up! Exactly what I was looking for. I suspected that the 10TB could be not what I hoped so I thought I would ask and I am glad I did. I think there is a trip to Costco in my future, just need to time it right so nobody is there. :) Snorf

Does anyone have any experience with shucking these drives? I have only found mixed information on what could be inside. Is this a HE drive? Is it SMR? Anybody tried one? https://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/wd-elements-10tb-usb-3-0-desktop-hard-drive-wdbwlg0100hbk-nesn-black/14927820 Snorf

The seller is legit. I bought a couple Z10PR-D16 boards off of them and I received them and they were fairly well packaged. One did have a couple of bent cpu fan pins but I carefully bent them back and all was good. Snorf

Try. MikroTik S+RJ10 - SFP+ RJ45 10Gbps Copper Module Snorf

Thank you to everyone that has PM'd and offered components for sale. As updated in the first post, all purchased. Snorf

I asked and this is what I got back.

Way to go! This will make for an awesome stay at home project! Snorf

In this day and age I guess this is appropriate, me too!

I have everything running and I am at about 490/490 with the fresh install with pci pass through. The comment I am seeing in the pfSense boot screen is (not sure what this means but hopefully google does): mlxen0: tso4 disabled due to -txcsum. mlxen0: tso6 disabled due to -txcsum. mlxen0...

Thx for sticking with me on this. There has been a small victory, but it was followed by massive failure...... :) First I re-installed pfSense and used OVMF and q35 instead of the defaults like shown in the virtualization instructions on the netgate site. It seemed much more responsive getting...

Yes. Go as far as you can without paying and it should be right when you get there. At least it was for me with express pay paypal. I haven't received any shipping info yet though. I hope he hasn't closed up and headed to Cuba! Snorf

Thank you for the reply. It took me about 2 weeks to learn how to fire up a VM with freebsd 11.1 and get the mlx files so the card would work in the first place with pfSense. Reading and learning is tedious when you have to google every third or fourth word or acronym. But, I did get it...

This is my situation: Internet connection Fibre 750Mbps/750Mbps transceiver sticks into my computer router (pfSense). Computer/router is 2 x Xeon X5650 with 32G of Ram. With HP 656089-001 Infiniband 10/40GB DP NIC 649281-B21 flashed to Mellanox firmware by following the thread on STH and set...

Well I bought 6 - 3TB drives. 6 for the price of 1, not bad for my home server. I just hope they last more than 30 seconds past the 30 days....... Snorf

I am a total noob and probably way off track but heh you never know. Card firmware. What are they running? Can you put them back in the working server and see what they are running and then if wrong firmware flash to what you need before moving them? They have firmware from 2012 - 2017 in...

Is there a super secret pre-release product ID unveiling so we can buy them up before the prices sky rocket? :) Sad day yesterday :( One of my ICX7150-C12P's died..... It just stopped dead no lights nothing. Pulled the power supply and it looks good but no output. Anyone know what it...

I used the CLI on the initial configuration (followed the instructions) but have been using the GUI on the ICX 6610 and 7250 mostly since then. Is there really anything you cannot do in the GUI that you can do in the CLI other than initial config from unknown state? It seems really good. Snorf

I am considering an R710 as well, your findings are of great interest. I have an R510 and have noticed that with Wave 2 devices it performs at full speeds. However, with non wave 2 devices there are issues. If I enable the rate limiter I can achieve faster speeds than just leaving it on...

Need a little help, sorry if this has been answered but I cannot find confirmation. I just want to make sure before ordering a bunch of stuff that may end up as useless. Background: I have 2 – ICX6610-48P’s, and I have some HP 656089-001 Infiniband 10/40GB DP NIC 649281-B21 cards to be used...
