    What connector on a Dell PERC H745?

    Does anyone know what SAS connectors are on Dell PERC H745 RAID card? I'm looking to install one in a PowerEdge T340 due to its high port count. I'm not familiar with what connector they use and it isnt officially a supported card so Dell support/sales is useless here. I think the connector...

    ASRock Rack i9-13900K stuck at 5ghz/235 watts

    So I know this isnt the type of thing you would typically see on STH forums, but since this is an ASRock Rack motherboard I thought i'd try as someone here might be more familiar with their BIOS than me. So I recently built a new PC, and everything that i've read has said that my i9-13900K...

    Samsung PM9A3 Hangs - firmware available?

    I have a 1.92TB Samsung PM9A3 I just received from SuperMicro for my new workstation. The disk was installed in a ASRock Rack W680D4U-2L2T-G5 board's 4x PCI-E 4.0 slot with the use of a riser card. This slot is serviced by the i9-13900K directly and is not connected to the W680 chipset according...

    SanDisk SkyHawk help

    So i recently purchased some SanDisk Skyhawk 3.84TB NVMe SSDs off ebay. While trying (and failing) to find a manual for this disk to explain what this not-exactly-a-mini/micro-USB style connector on the drive is for, i did run across the data sheet for HGST's SN620 SSDs which apparently share...

    Is it ok to use SAS3 (with sideband) SFF-8643 cables to connect a PCIe 4x <-> SFF-8643 board to a SuperMicro BPN-SAS3-826A-N4 backplane, which has SFF-8643 connectors for its NVMe bays? And if not, where can I find these mysterious U.2 compatible cables, ideally in 0.5m lengths?

    Xeon D-1500 Heatsink Removal

    Does anyone have any tips on removing the passive heat sink on a SuperMicro X10SDV series motherboard/Xeon D-1500 series CPU? It seems like they may have used thermal adhesive instead of the typical thermal paste, because after unscrewing it, it just doesn't want to come off.

    I received some SSDs which were resized from 480GB to a lesser amount. I was wondering if anyone knew how I could restore them back to their original size? Seagate SeaTools SSD appears to have this feature, but strangely only my HGST SN200 shows up in this program and none of my SATA SSDs.

Both SuperMicro and HP offer 14U racks which seem to be about as tall as the two filing cabinets which currently support my desktop. I contacted SuperMicro about this and they thought it was a bad idea. I would think if...
