    F2uSoe: 88GB/s will have to wait. She just can take Anymore

    In a reply to a previous post of mine @Rain alluded to the fact that at 88GB/s you can read data from the future. @tare55 pointed out that I would need 1.21 GigaWatts. Well as it turns out I will not be able to test either theory anytime soon. Much to the to dismay of the power companies...

    F2uSoe: Is the performance impacted by any of the 3 different ways of connecting NVMe drives.

    After thinking that the SuperMicro AOC-SLG3-2E4 was the culprit to hitting the sequential wall, I benchmarked three different ways of connecting the NVMe drives to see if there were any performance differences. 1. super macro card 2. intel expansion cage w/ riser & card 3. PCI slot...

    F2uSoe: 12 Hot swap NVME Drives in a 2U, the Intel NVMe Cage works with SuperMicro Card.

    After overcoming my disappointment of not getting 25GBs I decided to tinker around with the SuperMicro AOC-SLG3-2E4 card. I found a solution to the hard to find NVMe cables for those people who did not purchase a intel 750 What would happen if I connected the SuperMicro card using a standard...

    F2uSoe - initial hurtle passed, 2 Intel NVMe Cages in 1 Server

    @dba caught my attention in his DCDW. @Patrick showed me how to cram 4 2.5" NVMe drives into a Intel server. Now my goal is to turn 10 NVMe drives and 12 SSDs into a smoking fast SAN. With 1.2 TB NVMe drives and 2TB SSDs, it would have almost 18 TBs of storage. The 1st part of the plan is to...
