    Canada [WTB] [GTHA, ON] 2U 12-bay Supermicro cases (or similar)

    Looking to upgrade my storage cluster with a new set of 3x cases for further expandability. For bare cases, something like a Supermicro CSE-826 or similar, ideally with PSUs and the 2-bay 2.5" hotswap is a bonus. Not sure who else makes "just a case" except Supermicro, but I'd be willing to...

    Canada WTB 12x 32GB DDR4 ECC DIMMs

    I'm very cost-focused here, and I only need 2133-ish speeds for the system they're going in. Local in CAD preferred but will entertain US as long as the shipping cost is reasonable/included.

    Canada [WTB] 3x Sandy/Ivy 1U servers (or a 2U quad)

    Hey all, I'm in the market for 3x 1U or a quad 2U blade server(s), in the Sandy/Ivy Bridge era with DDR3. So HP G8's, Supermicro X9's, Cisco M3's, etc. I'd prefer one of those 3 brands over Dell/others, just because I know them, but really any manufacturer with sensible modern IPMI would work...

    Canada WTB: ConnectX-3 dual-port, 96GB+24GB DDR3 ECC REG, HP GL360 G6 2.5" blankers, C6100 empty chassis

    Per-outlet metered PDUs... options?

    I've got 8 servers: one C6100 chassis with dual PSUs, three machines with dual PSUs, and one machine with a single PSU. I'm looking for options to determine the per-port power of each of these, along with my other networking gear. The downside is that none of my devices are "new"/advanced enough...

    Canada WTB - 1 or 2 C6100 nodes (of L5520 or better variety)

    Looking to buy one (or possibly two for the right price) C6100 nodes. I've been running with 3 for some time having bricked one when I first got the system in 2013, but now I find myself needing the fourth (and a spare)! It will compliment three existing L5520-based ones (not AMD) in a TY3...

    What are some good Intel V4 dual-processor motherboards?

    I'm a little rusty on the hardware front: I know Supermicro, Tyan, ASUS, and a few others still make server-grade motherboards, but I'm not sure what to look for with all the choice! My main requirement seems humble, but also seems to be quite rare: an IPMI OOB management that I can *SSH into*...

    Canada WTB 4x Intel DC S3700 200GB

    Hello STH, long-time lurker looking to purchase 4 of these Intel SSDs for a Ceph cluster. I know how popular they are but I'm budget limited and would prefer to deal in CAD for that reason! If anyone has 4 for sale please PM me and we can discuss.
