I don't really like water-cooling.
I plan to have something like this. As long as the fan can supply above the required airflow (i.e., minimum CFM), it should be okay. That Noctua NF-A9 PWM can supply 46.44 CFM.
After I get time to access the R760xa (currently occupied by A100 PCIe and H100...
Sam is awesome;
I just received the P100 today and everything goes smoothly. He packaged it safely with a lot of bubble wrap and an ESD bag.
Thank you Sam for helping with my PhD research.
This is for testing only without any heavy tasks. I will add the fan shroud and Noctua fan at the...
I am interested if you are willing to sell one.
This is for my PhD research, and I need to collect some profiling data on older GPUs (P100 and V100) as a comparison with A100/H100.
If you have V100, I would also be interested as well.
I am not sure, but from what eBay has, I am looking for $10/cable for SFF-8644 to SFF-8644 and $7/cable for SFF-8643 to 4x SATA.
This one has SFF-8644 to SFF-8644 1 meter cable for $15, new: External Mini-SAS HD Cable Assemblies SFF-8644 to SFF-8644 30AWG 1-5 Meters | eBay

Hi there,
Just in case you have some SAS cables lying around, I would love to buy them. I am looking for a really good deal to expand my storage in my home lab.

Interesting, so the staggered spin-up will rely on the power pin 11, which should be controlled by the backplane which I don't have.
I thought that the drives will use PUIS and then the controller will wake them up one by one.
Thanks for your reply.
My current workaround is to enable the...
Hi there,
I have 32 Seagate EXOS X18 16TB SATA Drives and 2 Adaptec ASR-71605 on my homemade NAS server.
All HDDs are running the newest firmware SN04 and connected directly to the 71605 using SFF-8643 to SATA cables (no backplane).
Both ASR 71605 are in their newest firmware and set to HBA...
Hi all,
I am parting out the drives of my NAS due to a canceled research project :(.
These are shucked drives and they have been extensively tested prior to shucking (Write+Read test using HDD Sentinel) from Seagate 16TB Expansion Desktop USB 3.0 External Hard Drive (STEB16000400). They are...
Dear STH Community,
I change my mind to build a workstation computer and will move to a more reasonable build for a graduate student. For this Motherboard and Dual Xeon CPU Bundle with RDIMM Memory as a bonus, I am asking for $900 with free shipping using Priority Mail across the US.

I am currently looking for 12 x 32GB or 12 x 16GB RDIMM DDR4 at 2666 or 2933 MHz. Do you have a good offer on that? I have a pretty tight budget to build my own machine for Ph.D. Research. Thanks.
Hi 68k-dude,
Yes, I have that plan as well. I think, at first I will just populate single socket with an adequate number of DIMMs.
Since most of my research is using GPUs instead of CPU, I think I will not spend more in CPUs.
In the future, if I need more CPU power, I may add the second one...
Hi Kneelbeforezod,
You are right, I need to test it out first to make sure it is working. Maybe, in the meantime I will buy the cheapest Xeon and a stick of RDIMM to see it is working properly before buying more hardware. I will try more research into cheap Xeon CPUs and cheap RDIMM this...
Dear community,
I am planning to build a new workstation PC for my research in Grad School and looking for TRX40 or X570 motherboard (I have not yet decided between two). Since my budget is tight, I am trying to look used peripheral on eBay when suddenly one of the listings draws my attention...
