    Best ZFS config?

    I moved from 16Gb FC to to 40Gb, and I ended up just deleting my NappIT VM and figured I would start from scratch. I started with a new OVA deployment of NappIT, then passed through my HBA, Optane 900P 280GB and ConnectX-4. I had problems with the ConnectX-4, so I left it added to vSphere, and...

    Lost and confused...

    I have been through a bit of a journey recently with Napp-It. This was my first go around with ZFS. I ran FreeNAS with an Areca card and 10Gb iSCSI for a couple of years. I was lucky to score an Intel Optane 900P a while back when they were on sale on Amazon. I deployed a Napp-IT VM...

    [solved] Optane missing

    Last week, I got Napp-IT deployed using the latest OVA on ESXi 6.5. I configured ZFS with six hard drives and an Optane 900. Everything was working perfectly my storage was just fine on my other ESXi hosts. I had a need to reinstall ESXi (new SSDs and RAID controller), so I shutdown the...

    SuperMicro Backplane Capacitor

    What does this capacitor do? I ask because I was replacing a dead fan when I accidentally knocked one of these off of the backplane. The hard drive in the slot still functions OK. So, I'm just a bit curious. Thanks!
