    [FS] [US] Supermicro X9 + Xeons + DDR3 ECC UDIMM memory

    Moving some of this hardware, I have multiples of most things for redundancy. These setups measured ~30w idle/80w max on my Kill-a-watt iirc, which is respectable while being powerful enough for a fair bit of virtualization. 3 x X9SCi-LN4F (quad 1GbE) - Supermicro | Products | Motherboards |...

    CPU necessary for 1Gbit symmetrical w/ Suricata

    Any input into how much CPU firepower I need for IDS/IPS with Suricata? I know it varies by ruleset, but personal experiences would be helpful. I'm running OPNSense virtualized on Proxmox right now, hosted on a Sandy Bridge E3-1265L with two cores assigned, and I lose about half my throughput...

    FS: Netgear GSM7352S 48-port gigabit switch + 2 24 Gb stacking modules

    This is from Netgear's stackable line, with full layer 3 capabilities. Some scratches and whatnot, but functional. Switch isn't silent, but is probably one of the quieter things on my rack. The 4 SFP ports are 1 GB, the stacking modules are 24 Gbit and take standard CX4 infiniband cabling. I'm...

    Low power layer 3 switch?

    I don't need a ton of packet capacity; just looking to clean up my rack and not burn too many watts in the process. GbE is plenty as well; I'll have the QFPs+ setup point-to-point for the foreseeable future. Layer 3 would be nice for VLAN capability, but perhaps I can deal w/ a couple layer 2s...

    Video cards with side/rear mounted PCIe power

    Supermicro has a few 1U chassis with proprietary mobos to support one or two dual slot, full height gfx/compute cards, I acquired one and I'm attempting to find some cards that fit without breaking the bank. Question is, what cards have side mounted (or rear mounted, depending on who you ask)...

    Processors and ideal temps

    Just curious... I see users on here trying to minimize their CPU temps as much as possible, even on low TDP chips like the Atoms and Xeon D's that stay under 60 deg when pegged with a synthetic test. Assuming this is a longevity play since overclocking is mostly not an option - at what...

    Xeon E3-1265L - what is this chip?

    I picked up one of these on eBay, but it doesn't appear in Intel ARK at all; the only processors in ARK are the 1260L V1 and the 1265L V2. I'm not running Windows on it so I can't fire up HWinfo, is there something I can get from a linux util? The info tool on the cpustress ISO seems to state...

    btrfs: sector size and other musings

    I'm running btrfs in a RAID10, I chose it over a zfs (which I'm also running concurrently) because of it's exapandability, but I'm sort of rethinking my position. I have several issues currently, the drives are currently a mismatch sector size, which I don't know why it would do because I...
