As was expected by just about everybody , let’s see I know some corporates did deals before it closed that will see them doing fine for years to come but the little guy pretty much may choose to run away and use hyper-v, proxmox, or other options. Will know soon enough how this goes down.

Not really sure as I am not in the USA or Europe but could be some market. $150 and you can always find out but yeah could find it not sure easy to sell the case, rather limited market probably but on the other hand they fit mitx and flex atx boards and have front back cooling done some TMM...

Difference to standard parts by features, lifetime (longer), availability, some industrial temp range parts etc. they are intended for storage arrays etc.

Never found it but now the case is available as a standalone item so while it’s not super cheap also not so expensive buy the new case and then just sell the old one after swapping ?

I guess ‘legacy’ is depreciated Useful info to know for a lot of people

All prices are SGD ! Strong preference to sell everything in this post + probably a few other things in one go for $4500 If somebody for example wants a bundle all the apple stuff, or all the SM e5 gear or whatever just drop me a message. No shipping, pickup my place due to size. Big clean out...

I don’t try a higher TDP CPU but I did try 64GB rdimms and it was a no go, and of course it also doesn’t support LRDIMM so 192gb is the limit For me the limit the issue has is really memory as there is enough cores but never enough ram got a home system.

Never tried the H240 on ESX with raid but it performs exactly as expected when used with vSAN. Probably doesn’t give much insight really but if used in HBA mode it’s certainly an equal to the newer controllers for the most part but doesn’t support mixed more of course and I am sure even the...

SQL server is most likely windows and possibly Linux but that wound have been released after the hardware indicated. but same thing you need to dig into the performance statistics to see if it will actually make a difference.

I have a H240 in a gen10+ microserver no issues, running Linux but got me wondering if putting in a p408i-p you use the battery from the blade system the 12w one ? Wonder if they run hot or how they would go in a microserver.

We use it for domain controllers, bitlocker for portable devices. gives you some idea of what it’s useful for. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-server-2012-r2-and-2012/jj131725(v=ws.11)

It’s a TPM version 1.2 module for a HPE of G6/G7/Gen8 kind of vintage Gen9 also had a version 1.2 & 2.0 option but was different and gen10 2.0 is different again. Can be removed if you don’t have a use for it but it also won’t cause any harm.

Honestly Dell and HPE are on top of firmware updates the best as far as I can tell. Supermicro are good. Good support is part of the product cost really.

OBM daughter board is a very neat idea !

These systems need dimm heat spreaders and high temp capable ssd.

monthly check/scrub and your workload is used up already almost, does seem very Low. Certainly make sense why the end customers and vendors essentially take support topic themselves and just replace them. In a TCO and performance competition with SSD the only way drives make sense is is they are...

HDD’s do wear out like SSD’s, used to say generally not as quickly and the specs here hopefully don’t matter as 0.07 dwpd is a lot less than an SSD. HC560 is only rated to 550tb/yr so not a great deal more either, things doing say backup storage will easily exceed the warranty for writes.

SSD will be better. For 2 VM’s just use it, if it doesn’t meet expectations change it in future.

the are slower but the main reason is they have limited write endurance. You put a few OS’s on a single drive and you would see it’s life shortened significantly. (Google write endurance) TLC these days is fine though generally.

It’s as mentioned a unique item for expensive devices and it’s made at least with quality components.
