Working in manufacturing industry for several years I can just say that anyone attempting to replace a CPU socket on their own will fail. Even with proper BGA repair equipment costing several 100s of thousands of dollars, preprogrammed temperature curves to follow proper temperature without...
That would depend on what you use as end devices. If its harddrives 6gpbs is more than plenty. The latest harddrives above 20TB can basically saturate a 3gbps link.
So it depends a bit on the population. Each canister has a PCIe switch, IPMI, some ethernet stuff, two pcie-connectors and an optional COMe card header. Not all combinations are possible. But if you have a normal CX5 board you should have the COMe card and one possible position to use a PCIe...
Yeah so you have an ethernet in the backplane there, and if you have a new version there is a broadcom 1gbit switch (on different vlans if i remember correctly ) so both ipmi and the host get connected.
Yeah @aosudh thats a different product. The one you are describing is probably called Celestica Euclid. There is a public pdf with some information about it. But in general information is very sparse. Not sure if it was ever released to market. If you have the Mellanox version you should also...
Yeah, the 9500 HBA is not compatible with the X2024-M in any way at all. You need the R0932 card for it. And that together with the X2024-M needs to be produced after march 2017 to have the second PCIe switch hardware stepping. Else its basically a dead weight.
I have a box with two cards if...
Looks like the right one. I'd be worried with 1 in history in ebay. But with the tradera one less worried. Tradera was part of ebay before. Then when paypal and ebay split they were owned by paypal. Now they are separate again. Useless info for this auction. Sorry :D
I guess there are breakout cables that connect from external SAS directly to disks, but those are probably so unusual that they are too expensive. Maybe its better to buy internal cables and route them out of the chassis.
