    Need recommendation for SFP+ 24 port switch

    The Arista looks nice. Full linux tools. Redundant power supply and redundant fans. Also almost half power requirement of the HP. Will get it. What do I need to unlock? Is that done via the command line via linux?

    Need recommendation for SFP+ 24 port switch

    Wow that is one long thread. 150 pages. I guess the 6610 looks interesting even though I really don't need 48 1gig ports. Will SFP+ work with QSFP+? I was thinking this fits my needs better: JC102A HP Switch A5820-24XG-SFP+ 1xPS 658759224989 | eBay HP has 24 port SFP+ and 4 1 gig ports...

    I have about 16 servers that I'm moving over to SFP+ from 1G. Is this is a good switch: Arista DCS-7124SX 24-Port 10G SFP+ Layer 3 Switch 4x Fans 2x PSUs | eBay Any orders I should consider in < $500 range? Ideally, the switch I'm moving over to should have a few old connectors but not a...

    Difference between 560FLR-SFP+ and 560SFP+ ADAPTER

    Oh really. I'm still a bit confused. One of my G9's already has a 560 SFP+, so you are saying that I can connect the 560FLR-SFP+ in the same slot? Also, I have a few G8's as well. Will the FLR's work on them as well in the same slot?

    Need recommendation for firewall

    Thanks. How is the pfSesnse going to be different then untangle that I already have? 400$ a month? Wow, that's expensive. What do you get in the service contract? Just firmware updates?

    Need recommendation of good screws for hard drives

    I recently got a lot of 2'5" caddies for HP g9 DL360 servers and they came with screws. But the quality of the screws is terrible. I have two which are stuck and am dreading the time when I'll have to remove them. Can someone recommend higher quality screws either on Amazon or ebay.

    Hmm, so the hardware connection is the same between the two? What about this server: PROVANTAGE: HPE P16696-B21 HPE Proliant DL325 Gen10 AMD EPYC 7402P 24-Core 64GB 8SFF P408i-A SAS 800W 3-Year It says: "SAS" in the title but also "The embedded SATA HPE Smart Array S100i Controller"
