Running in a Dell R730, PERC H730 mini. Amber Lights on the drives. Other Crucial SSD is continuing to run fine.
iDRAC reported Physical Disk State: Failed for both drives

WTB Rackmount UPS 1000-1500 VA, NEMA 5-15P. Flexible 2-4U in height. Bonus points if near Boston to NH area for pickup
Only have a 15amp Standard US 110v NEMA 5-15P input. Sine-wave output. Double conversion OnlineUPS not desired but considered (due to more noise/heat/overhead).

WTB 2 x 40GBe Cards:
* Chelsio T580-LP-CR
* T580: Chelsio T580-SO-CR
* Intel XL710-qda2
If possible also need Full Height or source for cheap brackets, and short 40G QSFP+ DAC Cables.
Are their any of the Intel XL710s with the bad silicon in the wild we need to worry about?
We are considering a ZFS Storage Server for our VMware VSphere 6.7 Environment.
Dell's SAN solutions do not appear to be price competitive. I'm open to other enterprise supported solutions.
ZFS provides minimal vender lock-in and gives us a lower cost to expand by adding 24 drive or 60 drive...
I'm looking to Rent Computational Server for my hobby Prime hunting doing PRP tests using FFT algorithms. My current 20 cores in house is not enough :)
Wanted to Rent: 16+ Physical Cores Xeon E5 generation or newer. ~ 12GB RAM
Xeon v3 or Haswell or newer is ideal for the new FMA3 instruction...
What are the best practices for a small scale business Centos7 samba server vm (5 users, ~15GB, Win10 Clients, files/lightweight pos/quickbooks)?
I tested New Relic's free server monitoring, although it broke after just one day reporting the servers are offline.
How would you setup basic...

HP's VMware support matrix has removed the HP DL380 G6 from ESXi 6 compatibility although it has the G7 listed.
VMware's list of unsupported hardware agrees.
The HP DL380 G6 uses two HP NC382i dual Network cards for a total of 4 gigabit ports. They are broadcom based. (HP Quickspec) I...
IBM 64GB STICKS FRU 46K2590 64GB 8GX72
Wow this is one weird RAM module from IBM that looks like tipple height. Not immediately clear but may be for a Power7 system. I bet that server has some amazing RAM capacity. Although Supermicro has their Ultra Servers with 24 DIMMs and 1.5TB RAM Support.
Looking for cheap 2011 systems, I ran into this Quanta Open Compute barebones server for $199.
2 x Dual LGA2011 nodes with 10GB Ethernet. $50/cpu socket, with 10 GBE, and 1024GB Total RAM
Looks rather loud but should be easy to swap in larger fans. I wonder how expense a basic build would be...
As I am downloading the VMUG Advantage, I noticed the filenames and build numbers do not match the vmware.com (they have only 6.0.0a 6.0.0b 6.0.0U1) so it is hard to verify.
Anyone have hashes calculated for the VMware files? (hashdeep is a nice program to do a whole directory tree)

OmniOS + NappIT VM: Major Fault (kernel.panic)/High CPU/Hard + Soft Smart errors
I'm concerned since i have very high CPU usage 50-75% without much of any SMB or NFS Access. SMB seams fast but NFS really drags. For example, I got over 200 MB/s by SMB and just 20 MB/s copying that same large...
My idle power seams high at ~80 watts with only ESXI 5.5 All-in-one OmniOS/Nappit appliance. All VMs and vCenter powered off ~79 Watts. ESXI Power Management: Balanced vs. low power does not seam to matter. ~140 Watts under load (trans coding).
Any tricks I can use to lower the idle power for...
