    [WTB] Pluribus NvOS Netvisor OS image

    From the public doc, if running lower than 3.1.1, upgrade to higher versions is not supported. So the jump should be <any previos version> --> 3.1.1 --> 6.x/5.x Do you have any other files?, could you share those?

    [US] [WTB] Intel S2600CP2J

    Thanks for the offering, I had really great experience with Supermicro in other builds. Unluckily I won't be able to make that fit with the existing case & accessories (P4308XXMFGN case + air duct + heatsinks)

    [US] [WTB] Intel S2600CP2J

    Thanks, I've seen the "hangs for several minutes" thing. I really don't like its behavior (seems Intel can only build decent processors & NICs). Unluckily ducts & case won't fit a Supermicro alternative. Will ping you once I try my last install attempt. PS: I'm still waiting for a price tag :)

    [US] [WTB] Intel S2600CP2J

    Might give it a try. I'm coming back home next week and will try my last attempt at resurrecting the current MB. Do you care to elaborate on the "temperamental" part? how much are you asking for?

    [US] [WTB] Intel S2600CP2J

    I have an aging LGA2011 setup that I would like to salvage. Current S2600CP2J MB is acting up, onboard Ethernet + BMC are dead and it boots up when it wants to. I'm looking for an inexpensive fix replacing the MB with a fully functional S2600CP2J in case somebody wants to get rid of something...

    CSE-M28SACB fan

    As of today, stock fans & ducts. I'm looking forward to discard the Intel motherboard, which might trigger duct discarding (seems Supermicro socket alignment are not the same as my s2600cp2j). But that's a different quest...

    CSE-M28SACB fan

    Hello!, I got a CSE-M28SACB disk cage, it sports a super noisy fan. Given it's mounted in a P4000M Intel chassis with air ducts and stock fans, would it be possible to just remove the cage fan?. It's super tiny & noisy, interestingly though, I've seen pictures of the cage without the fan and...

    Intel S2600CP2J replacement

    My Intel S2600CP2J based home lab server is acting up once more. I'm fed up and would like to throw the MB away (it has always been weird/wonky) It's currently matched with an Intel P4000M case, with compatible Intel air duct, CPU heatsinks, 2x e5-2680 V2 and 16*32GB RAM sticks. Is there any...

    Controller sudenly dead

    Hello!, I've been running RS3DC080 (Intel OEM for 9361-8i) on ESXi 7.0 for about a month and it suddenly died on me. The CLI only states "controller not present", and there's no much additional info. The status LED for the first disks keeps blinking. The case is well ventilated, P4000 series...

    SAS cable difference?

    Hello, Can anybody tell the difference between CBL-SAST-0531 and CBL-SAST-0593 cables?. I'm looking to connect an Supermicro CSE-M28SACB cage with an Intel RS3DC080 controller.

    Intel RS3DC080 with LSI/Avago capacitor?

    Helli!, I got an RS3DC080 controller. Anybody knows if Intel controllers can use Avago/LSI cache and capacitor kits? I found original Intel cache/capacitor kits (AXXRMFBU4) but they're quite expensive. 9361-8i kits from Lenovo are way more affordable, for the same price of the BBU kit from...
