    Brocade ICX Series (cheap & powerful 10gbE/40gbE switching)

    Thank you! adding a 330µF cap removed the whining noise. Here is a video where i power on the switch, test the cap, and measure the pvm frequency (~3kHz). This video shows a different fan. Since this fan is more quiet and runs slower the whining is even worse. Here you can easily hear the...

    Brocade ICX Series (cheap & powerful 10gbE/40gbE switching)

    Adding more disks for storage spaces

    Yeah.. A new one is probably the solution. I'm using it for video storage with plex, so single redundancy is probably enough? I have a lot of 600gb 15k disks too, but I'm guessing it's not worth it with cache for slow sequential video?

    Adding more disks for storage spaces

    Hello, I got 9* 8tb disks today in the mail. And was wondering how I should add them to my existing system. I currently have 5* 2tb drives in a storage pool with a ReFS volume. What would be the best way to include the new disks? Merging them into the current pool? Making a new pool and adding...

    Upgrading HBA card to sas 6Gbit and adding more storage

    I'm planning on getting some new drives soon, and after checking what I have I found out I need a new HBA. My current card is a "HP SAS 3801E" (Only sas1, so max 2tb drives) and the one I'm looking to upgrade to is a "LSI SAS9207-8E" (seems to be the card people recommend for sas2?) My current...
