Hi folks! At work we have an older Nexenta ZFS rig serving mostly iSCSI to ESXi blades that my boss is getting worried about because we have no "support" and the drives are getting old, and the people who built it made a zpool ashift choice error (default ashift=9 rather than forcing 12) so we...

Hi All, I have one small, dirty hardware project on my hands, but I'm stuck and I really need some help. I'm looking for the pinout of all PSU connectors, for DL320 G6. PSU model number is HP DPS-400AB-4. The same PSU is used in another servers from the same generation, like HP DL120 G6 and...

Hi! I'm looking for a cheap thin client to replace my laptop at work. I would need 2x dvi (1920x1200), and at least 2 usb ports. It needs to support RDP to Windows 10 and Server 2016 (and earlier versions). I saw the HP T310, but as this is a Zero Client for Vmware, I'm pretty sure I cannot...

I recently got a full 42U rack for my home server and networking and want to replace my existing tower server to a rackmount server. I was initially looking at Dell R7X0 and R5X0 series servers but I have heard some conflicting comments about noise and power consumption. I do not need it...

Hello all! I know this has been talked a number of times but I'd like a concise answer if at all possible. I'm building a Supermicro-based Xeon Scalable home server and need PWM case fans (not in a Supermicro chassis). A build-log with pictures will be posted later. I'd prefer not to have to...

Hi All, I've got a bunch of stuff that I've been amassing for a while now that I'd like to get rid of. I am located in Richmond, VA and am willing to ship (preferably not the server, but will if I have to), but shipping is not included in the prices listed. I am willing to accept Paypal only...

So i'm now roughly half a week into my second attempts at troubleshooting GPU passthrough. I've researched information on VMware's site, as well as this great thread: Troubleshooting GPU passthrough ESXi 6.5 Unfortunately, i just cannot seem to figure out where i'm going wrong and was...

I had to build a temporary server for a client earlier this year to replace a broken one and have one until his built to order one was delivered and setup. All the parts where new at time of build (except the RAID card I grabbed that out of another server) and less than a year old (was...

Disclaimer: I'm a super noob when it comes to NA/file servers/pretty-much-anything-network-related. PLease be gentle with me. I recently moved my work pc to the living room after a bit of maintenance and have become quite accustomed to gaming on 42in tv I scored from a second hand store (for...

I know AMD is marketing their new Ryzen 7 and 5 chips mainly towards enthusiasts and gamers. But, given the price and performance, and ECC support, it seems like a good competitor for single-socket Xeons (E3 series) and arguably Xeon-D. I'm waiting for a motherboard vendor like Supermicro or...

Great Home Lab / VM Server - Dell R710 Dual X5570 (16 Threads @ 3 Ghz each! ), 144 GB Ram, $595 I would say the Dell R710 is the most compatible / supported Server available. i.e. it is supported by just about every OS (including ESXI 5-6, Windows Server OS's 2003 to 2016 and Windows Desktop...

Hi, I want to buy a new quiet Desktop Xeon-based Server. It must be quiet, not louder than an average desktop, because I want to use it at home, near my table near which I sit and work. I saw for example, Lenovo ThinkServer TS140 70A4000HUX i3-4130 3.4GHz Server Desktop Computer (According to...
