Just received a EMC branded Samsung PM1633a drive purchased on ebay. It was formatted in 520b so used the usual sg_format utility on windows to switch it to 4k (did it successfully with many drives before). After 3% formatted, sg_format returned an error, and both smartctl and sg_format now tell...
While actively searching for a larger amount of SSDs larger or equal to 4TB, I received an offer from a Chinese contact for Samsung 1723a or MZWLL3T8HMJP-000G7. I never heard about PM1723's but 1725's. I'm also unable to collect any usable information about these drives. Has anyone ever heard...
I bought 3x MZ1LB1T9HALS PM983 drives off eBay. They are all new with zero hours.
I'm trying to use these with ESXi 8. I currently have 970 Evo Plus's that work just fine, even with vSAN.
VMware HCL lists minimum supported firmware for the PM983 in 8U1 as EDA7202Q. Mine came with EDA73F2Q...

I've tired both a Dell T7920 Rack and Dell T7920 tower and trying to get ESXI 8 to see a Samsung PM1733 15.36TB drive and Kioxia CM6 (I have 8x in total) as a device, to build a datastore. The BIOS CAN SEE the NVME drives (I've attached it via cheap amazon NVME/PCIE adapter, HBA card, and even...
Hi everyone,
I have 2 of these Oracle branded Samsung 3.2TB NVMe SSD MZ-WLK3T20 which I salvaged from a Oracle x6-2s server.
So tried to install it using the bifurcation NVMe adaptor for U.2 into one of the PCIE 3.0 x8 slots but the system will not post. Tried different slots and same results...
Got a Dell PM1725a 1.6GB HHHL AIC for $102 in an auction, the seller probably didn't know what he was selling. I had low expectations but it turned out with 100% health and just shy of 10TBW.
The firmware it had was 1.0.4, a search on google pointed me to 1.1.3 from Dell, but the installer...
Hi,
Hope you are all doing well.
I'm in the process of expanding my lab array and want to use this opportunity to maybe find some new or used parts here instead of rushing straight to Ebay.
I'm looking for 4 x Samsung PM883 960GB or 4 x Micron 5200/5300 960 SSDs. They can have...
Currently looking at buying a RX750xs with h755 perc in 12 LFF chassis, but the prices listed for sata ssd are just insane. Have it configured with 4x 4TB Sata HDD from Dell and planning to get some additional ssds, like Intel D3-S4610, or Samsung PM883, or Micron 5300 max and put them in some...

It is a SuperMicro 230900-1U-X9DRI-LN4F+1.1-4BLTQ-1PS
The BIOS shows up as Supermicro x9DRi-LN4+/X9DR3-LN4+
I recently picked up a Samsung 870 EVO 4TB SSD to pop in it for my esxi server, however the...
UPDATE: Digging around, the reason appears to be that I’m not an SI, so of course I can’t find one. Looks like I’ll go with something such as the Intel D7-P5510 since there should be end-user support for them.

I’m curious if anyone has seen these for sale yet, as Samsung...

Hi all,
I have an Intel S2600CP system board and looking to upgrade my RAM from 32GB to 64GB. The problem is my current RAM has 2 stickers on it (pictures below). I understand Crucial is owned by Micron, but am I relegated to only this brand of memory? I've been shopping for cheaper 8GB sticks...
