My big order got cancelled. Looks like they're allowing single drive orders because I have t gotten the cancellation for that one drive order. They sent a 25% off coupon on the first $1k of non sale price products so it's not much of a coupon.
Somehow with the updated prices, Reds are more than...

Cheaper than even the regular Reds. 8TBs are $119CAD. Even high capacity ones are cheap.
Cheaper than MyBooks by a large margin.
For all us Canadians only, no US shipping addresses are being accepted.
Thank you, that is what I was looking for. Sequential resilvering is exciting as well but ill look into the TRIM issues as I am hoping for that too.
No major bugs about encryption blowing up is good so far, that was my biggest concern.
Regardless of the security of IPMI its firewalled off from almost everything. And Dell DRAC has their own security holes now, not unique to Supermicro.
I dont either, but when its needed its well worth it. Error booting? Two seconds to log into IPMI vs going and plugging in a monitor, which for...
Depends on the use of said board though... This one is my firewall. Consumer grade boards usually don't come with quad Intel NICs, IPMI and support for ECC RAM.
Odd. I didnt do anything special during my updates. For BIOS updates I took the default, it was something about "Retain SMBIOS memory" was checked and the other two retain options were unchecked.
The version shows up for me still on the main page after logging in.

There isnt a lot of solid information around on getting HTML5 KVM on the Supermicro A1SRi-2758F boards (to get rid of the horrible Java KVM). But for anyone wanting to do the same, I can confirm that you can use the BMC firmware "REDFISH_X10_377.zip" from Supermicros site to update the BMC on...
Note that on the S3700/S3710, the larger capacity ones are much faster. In my testing the 100GB HGST drives mentioned in the OP were faster than 200GB S3700s as SLOGS. I think Geas own testing showed this too.
The Fitlet2 was high on my list before I went with a Supermicro board. Has an addin card to get you to four NICs if you need that, or some other options including an LTE modem.

I use a G3 Micro as the baby room monitor camera. It wont be there forever, it will eventually move to being an actual security camera elsewhere hence the justification over an actual baby camera which are sort of useless past the point of needing a camera pointed at a baby (plus getting into...
Two to three LSI 9308s, a 10Gb Broadcom and hopefully some PCI-e SSD later so could be borderline... But right now just trying to reduce the noise somewhat.
