    WTB - 12 16gb sticks Reg ECC PC3L 12800 (1600mhz low voltage) + E5-2470 V2 x2

    As title states..... upgrading a couple of older servers. Want to get a dozen 16GB sticks of low voltage ram, and a pair of CPU's. Can be separate sales of course but I do want all ram sticks to preferrably match (but not absolute mandatory if specs match, and I also might consider 1.5v ram)...

    [FS] Quanta LB6M Switch - Essentially new

    SOLD! Bought it from Unix Plus brand new. Deal thread is here in the networking forum as well as the super long thread on upgrading these with the Brocade firmware. I've already done the upgrade. Its ready to go. I ended up not using it for a project so it sitting here and was never really even...

    Brocade ICX Series (cheap & powerful 10gbE/40gbE switching)

    Glad to see that license issue got resolved pretty quickly! Some people just have no scruples and will take advantage of any situation to make a quick buck. Same sort of thing happened with Dahua IP cameras that were made for the China market. Those are a LOT cheaper than ones made for...

    Brocade ICX Series (cheap & powerful 10gbE/40gbE switching)

    Ah - did not read back through the whole thread so did not catch that this models thresholds cannot be changed. No worries. Not going to cut the top up but I do have a fan in there that directs some cooler air into the closet. I'll have to aim it a bit different. I can also re-route the bulk of...

    Brocade ICX Series (cheap & powerful 10gbE/40gbE switching)

    Quick one on the 6610. Can the fan speed thresholds be changed? I did not see the fan-threshold command in the cli but I might be looking in the wrong place. On mine, I put it in the rack today and about every 10 minutes the fans kick up to high for about 5 seconds. Does not take them long to...

    Brocade ICX Series (cheap & powerful 10gbE/40gbE switching)

    It seems to me that it might also be this.... "Power supply 2 not present" That is in the post log tony has a few posts up. I know on this 6610 I have if you do not have BOTH power supplies plugged in then the fans stay at full speed. When I started looking for a 6610 I did find a few with...

    Need NVMe PCIe Adapter Recommendation

    Yes..... to use one of the plain cheaper cards your motherboard must support PCIe bifurcation either through a PLX chip on the board or through a couple of the very newest chipsets. Otherwise you need a multi-port M.2 PCIe card with a PLX chip on the card. Those are not very common yet. Aplicata...

    Brocade ICX Series (cheap & powerful 10gbE/40gbE switching)

    So.... on some more testing. If anyone is curious, the ram in the 6610-48 is a single PC2-5300 512MB REGISTERED ECC DDR2 667 SORDIMM. Also if anyone is curious, it will not fully boot with a non-ECC 1GB SODIMM. It does go into the initial memory test menu though and there is an option in that...

    Got my 6610-48 in..... what a nice piece of hardware! Many thanks to fohdeesha for another excellent and easy to follow guide! Mine is non-poe by the way. Mine came with two of the Rev a Emerson power supplies. Yeah, those buggers are loud at startup but really no worse than a couple of the...

    EMC XtremSF550

    They can be used a a nice very fast SSD but I do not believe they are "bootable" cards. I'm not sure if there are newer drivers to make it work under Windows 10 for example but there might be. My worry would be what is the percentage of remaining life is. Both the management software and the...

    Brocade ICX Series (cheap & powerful 10gbE/40gbE switching)

    Interesting..... I'll be able to provide some more numbers on this in a few weeks. I have two Eaton 9130 UPS's in the rack here at my shop which I have configured for 240V and everything in the rack runs at 240V. In general, it tends to be slightly more efficient.... That being said, what I have...

    Brocade ICX Series (cheap & powerful 10gbE/40gbE switching)

    Frigging prices on these have gone nutso! :( Finally scored a 48 port 6610 (non-POE) though. Figures that literally the day I finally get around to installing the LB6M I run across this which fits needs even better. Seems like every time I come here I find some new storage or networking thing...

    Keystone patch panels - what are my options?

    I've been using some from Cable Matters for a while now and really like them. For smaller installs or where you do not want to have to mess with a rack mount type they have a 12 port one that mounts like a standard telco block which is very handy. Its a standard 89d bracket (very common style...

    Turbocharge your Quanta LB6M - Flash To Brocade TurboIron - Big Update!

    I wonder if anyone has found whatever was the last "quanta" firmware to mess around with? Looked at one of the actual Quanta firmware guides and they show screenshots of a web interface, lots of IPV6 stuff, etc.
