Seems like a reasonably good deal, although the platform is aging; it is still capable.

Great storage heads! So much capacity for external JBODS Even more on the GPU variant of these.
If I didin't have 5+ x10dru spares I'd buym~!

What trays do these use?

What trays do these use?

They use the regular "standard" SM LFF tray. eg: 01-SC813A2-XX00C103

Looks like same as the CSE-829U X10DRU-i+ softlayer ones that ebay felt flooded with for a while.
Probably with same 10gbase-t riser since there is that AOC-STGN-i2S sfp+ card installed.

Looks like a few US sellers still got them like this 249$/offer with trays and shipping.

They were down at 60-80/ea for a while in Europe earlier this year.
i was oh so happy to finaly replace and standardize my filenodes, then i found some 100/ea 36LFF and replaced them again

$60 each? That's crazy price.

The trays are not an issue, they cost $1.5 each.

They were a pretty nice deal for being supermicro, should net a small profit when reselling them.

Now im moving over to these 36LFF 2SFF huawei they accepted 100/ea for.

I paid $130 for mine, with all 12 trays included and shipped. And recently upgraded to X11DPU for $160.

Why did you upgrade to the x11, what purpose\benefit did you gain? Wondering if I'm missing something

Cheaper way to get an 6029U?
I plan to use this as my ML and database server in the near future. Mine has 3x PCIe16 double width riser and I'm currently running 2 x gold 6140 with 320G ddr4-2666. It's not just for storage. One of the main reasons I love this server is it's GPU friendly.
I also have a CSE-847 as storage server which currently running E5 Xeon.

Wow that Huawei is an extremely big boy. 4u? too bad that a) the seller is in Germany and b) I totally don't need it anyway
