I want to upgrade my Xeon E5 v4 to a Ryzen setup, still waiting for DDR4 ECC UDIMM modules to get cheaper.
DDR4 RDIMM modules are dirt cheap.
The 32GB Crucial modules with discount are ~$74 right now, which like half than a year ago, but 32GB RDIMMs are <$30.
I'll wait a bit more...
The board no longer POSTed and I could npt log into the IPMI, no matter what I did. I disabled the IPMI and it booted correctly. I enabled The IPMI again and it booted every time now and now I could log into the IPMI. I reinstalled the IPMI firmware and reset to defaults. Then tried to rewrite...
About a week ago my server with X9SRL-F stopped responding so I had to do a power reset. It didn't post, IPMI also didn't work. I powered it off, disconnected the power for a few minutes then powered it on and gave me that error "recovery image not found". Power cycled it again but now no...
I have one 16GB I removed from a new laptop some time ago. It's NVMe, not SATA, won't work as SATA.
What I've noticed is that after sitting a while it reports errors, requiring a full erase. This has happened twice. I just use it for tinkering with some SSF devices.
And power consumption of the WX7100 is about twice that of the WX5100, the WX7100 is longer and requires a PCI-E connector.
There are applications where low power consumption and a compact size are a better fit.
I saw these about two months ago for about $80 from one seller but were gone when I decided to but it. Since then I've only seen them around $180 when/if you find them.
This was listed today, seller accepted $105 for one.

Got my dirves today, they all are 0 POH, 0 writes and 0 reads and were powered on 3 times. They are new!
Forgot to take snapshot, so connected the drive again and now it shows 4 times powered on.
Got no refund, the answer was return the drives, I explained the return shipping was more expensive than the drives themselves, they just said thet because I was using a forwading service no refund would be provided. So they got a bad review.
You could reuse the case and PSU, but it all depends on what other peripherals you will use (you may need a bigger PSU).
Will you be using Windows Server as the virtualization platform? You may try using something less resource hungry like Proxmox first.
What game servers will you be...
Take a look here, I would've jumped at that if I hadn't already bought an E5v4+X10 board.

I you are reusing the enclosure, PSU and disks then all you need is RAM and you'll be within your...
I wrote to them as son as I received the drives, still no answer. I'm outside the US and I get everything I order about a month after I put the order, so probably won't get a refund, I'll try anyway.
I received my $35 drives from Unix Surplus. What I got are SAS drives even though the listing was for SATA drives. I cannot test them right now as the SAS backplane I have is already in use with SATA drives.
The models they sent me are SanDisk Optimus ECO 800GB with a 2014 date of manufacturing...
