I guess I'll stick with this PDB/PSU combo and just get the EPS to 2 6+2 pin cable. I don't really need to worry about any molex conversions as between the sas expander backplane and the additional sata power for powering my ssd's there are none left. I would definitely want to avoid powering my...
After seeing the horror stories of molex to sata cables catching on fire I've become quite skeptical of converter cables also splitting one high power cable into 2 high power cables on the same rail makes me uneasy as well. Is that cable really safe?
It came with a PDB-PT846-8824 power distributor but it doesn't have the connectivity I require. I need at least 2 pci-e 8 pin connectors. All I've got left from this psu is 4 floppy connectors and a cpu connector. I would really prefer to avoid doing dangerous splitter and conversion things. Is...
also just because you don't have a use case for it today doesn't mean you won't have a use case for it in the future. when i built my last nas/server it was a bit after the introduction of pci-e 3.0. I very easily could have made a build around a pci-e 2.0 motherboard and now 6+ years later I...
I'm just happy that I'll be able to get 8 links. I just bought an 846 with this backplane $199(seemed too good to be true) and was concerned I made a mistake. I doubt that even 24 5400 rpm drives will be able to saturate 8 links. looks like my h310 will work perfectly with this thing.
thanks...
Some places I've read say that this backplane will only support a single 8087 connection and expand from there, other places seem to say that it will actually support 2 8087 connections, but only if it's coming from the same hba, and others yet again seem to claim that it will support 2 8087...
Do the gigabyte boards have ipmi? How is it? My last build was a supermicro and it's been nothing but wonderful but these new amd supermicro boards seem pretty lackluster. I would prefer to have a full atx board with good ipmi, built with 7002 in mind and multiple nvme pcie 4 slots. i also don't...
