    NorcoRPC-2008 and RL-20 Rail Fit

    I have the same rack and rails but the Norco RPC-270 case. It has a similar problem where when I first tried to rack the server it took me probably 20 minutes to force it in. Once I got it in it did work, but it was clearly bending the rails when you pulled the server out / pushed it back in...

    Bug in Intel Atom C2000 series processors?

    From the linked doc: So while certainly not ideal, it doesn't sound like it's a security vulnerability with unknown repercussions - rather if it affects you, you will know because your server won't turn back on.

    Supermicro Power Question

    One thing I dislike about supermicro is they really aren't shy about using non-standards parts. I suspect what you are looking at may be something similar to the connector described here: PSU for server motherboard

    Supermicro Power Question

    Yes, that is the correct pinout. For a good comparison between similar connectors, I think this has a pretty good description of each: All about the various PC power supply cables and connectors. I've taken apart a number of PSU's - and what I've seen is that PSU's with multiple 12V rails...

    Fiber bend radius

    Ordered the bend insensitive fiber! Because I was curious I ended up running my existing fiber anyway to see how it would do. It's currently working just fine, I tested it vs. straight fiber between the same servers and `iperf` consistently was the same for each cable - but some of the bends...

    Fiber bend radius

    I'm looking to run fiber from one end of my apartment into my server closet. Currently I've got cat 6 cable run and hidden as well as possible since I can't put it inside the walls and I'm hoping to run the fiber alongside the existing cable. My question, is will the bend radius around the door...

    for those who wants to build their own 10gb switch

    It's a small m-itx board that already has a dual port 10gbe nic in it's only pcie slot. For what used 4 port 10GbE nics are going for on ebay, I'd just buy a 24x10GbE switch - and still come out ahead. (I suspect they're too uncommon to have fallen in price proportionally to the rest of the...

    for those who wants to build their own 10gb switch

    Here's where I think this could be useful: I've got a zfs storage server, 2 proxmox nodes, pfsense firewall, and a desktop that I would love to be all be on 10GbE. 4-port 10GbE switches are now reasonable in price but in this setup which node would you keep on 1 GbE? I'm not aware of any 10GbE...
