Starting this thread to talk about the popular MS-01 as a Proxmox Virtual Environment node, in a clustered environment. Some questions I have: What are the things to look out for? Should we install other software along with Proxmox on the nodes? Is your solution successful? What unique are...

I bought a couple of super cheap MCX512A-ACAT cards. Knowing they were for parts - not working. They both have a single missing capacitor. I have every tool needed to repair this and, I might even have the missing caps. If I don't, Mouser can hook me up, I am sure. I am to lazy to relearn, how...

I'm looking for advice. I need to finish my home systems redo. It's going to be based off of the new Minisforum MS-01 mini PCs. I'm going to setup 2 of the MS-01 12i5 (still waiting on both) as a HA OPNsense firewall. I have a Motorola modem that has a single 2.5gbs Ethernet LAN connection...

I am posting this as a gathering of info for the popular MS-01 from Minisforum, unrelated to the PCIe Card and RAM Compatibility Thread. That thread is 70% not, PCIe Card and RAM Compatibility and growing. It's best to keep it at PCIe Card and RAM Compatibility (or maybe re-name it and delete...
