    12TB 3yr warranty refurbed Seagate for $6.83/TB shipped

    That penalty has to be such a small amount of data it's irrelevant.. the real loss when using SATA is the additional functionality\options\etc SAS drives provide... which may not even be useful for people here depending what they're doing. I only have SAS HDD because they were cheaper, I would...

    From thought to hardware: How do you did it?

    I think this is usually different for everyone... some need low power, some need low price, some need to re-use what they have, some need 100Gbit and very high-end hardware to simulate their work environment non-virutalized... others will virtualise and learn\test...

    12TB 3yr warranty refurbed Seagate for $6.83/TB shipped

    With these used drive deals becoming more common the last few years in capacities everyone wants and a lot of people jumping on these.. including myself at a couple points in the last 2 years. My question... how many are mixing these "refurb" drives with new drives or used personal drives you...

    Slowdown over time of Crucial P3 SSD (vs Intel P4610)

    The workload is unlikely to actually be 100% READ though... so a mixed workload, a consumer SSD and a low-end version at that... not unexpected.

    what nas drive types bottleneck at which ethernet speeds?

    The problem is "What combination of drives saturate X" is the wrong question. Your question at it's simplest form can be answered by looking at drive specifications, drive reviews (in steady-state) on various sites, and then doing basic math... yet the answer to this is no good because SO MUCH...

    miniPC for pfSense

    I have a Protectli device I purchased in 2016. It's been running pfsense since 2016 24\7 non-stop, and been run through dozens of power outages\surges, as well as on generator power for 100hs of hours... 0 issues. BUT, I run it through a battery backup unit the entire time too. I paid around...

    Will it work? Epyc 7F72 + 25 NVMe's

    I'm enjoying the contrast of the current builds... one person going for xLanes per nvme device, and the other cramming all 24 into one HBA :eek: both with unique additional problems :) :) Thanks for never making it dull around here everyone :D :D

    How to connect 24 * Intel P4510 to the Broadcom 9600-24i HBA.

    Why do you want 24x NVME if you're only going to use 1 HBA? Why not 20x SATA and then 4x NVME? WAY less power needs, way easier to connect, way cheaper to connect. Go with a supermicro SC216 with the 20+4 backplane, no DIY hacking together, no adding desktop PSU. The CX3701 does not have the...

    Yep, return it! IT was DOA. Only if listed for "PARTS NOT WORKING" and description matches. Item can't be marked "PARTS NOT WORKING" and then description says "Working pull from server".. you can return that, and ebay guarantee covers that too.

    EXPIRED 1.5TB P4800X $300

    Proof of purchase? On this old thing, sorry we don't have those records... what can you do for me? ;) Sounds like they're from a system that shorted or got over powered and everything is questionable... good seller though! That's great.
