So Harvester and Rancher that's a little more mature. Harvester is moving fast, good and bad things about this. Will be nice when it just merges both parts to make life easier, but I'm guessing sales got in the way and forces them to remain distinct products. Harvester already has a bunch of Rancher stuff in it, seems like it shouldn't be hard to put the rest in place and be done. It will require a more stout host to run it all, but in most of the industry, this should be a problem.

Thats a cool rack. Do you have more pictures?Get it done my man! I know it's a slog...lots of F-bombs and "ahhh screw it, I'll do it tomorrow" type of reactions, but once done, it's...glorius.
Two racks...lost of cursing while getting them completed. Here's a funny story. In the compute rack (right rack in the picture above), I thought I had "finalized" my hardware config, built the sleds, mounted them in the rack, was gonna use iSCSI boot for everything (which did work as such), but...due to many different things, plans changed...
I ordered a whole bunch of those adapters that can hold one m.2 sata SSD and one NVME, so I can have SATA boot and one NVME in each sled. Then...had to unmount ALL of the sleds...one by one...add the adapter with SSD and sata cable...mount the sled back...
And there's a shit load of them...fun fun fun...
I've given up on Starwind. I realized I didn't really need high availability per se, a 15 minute rsync is more than enough to give me the data security I need (This is a mirror of my prod, so the data is already duplicated per se). So, once that requirement went away, I realized, well, why Starwind?
And it still doesn't do NVME-oF with HA, actually even without HA as well, still is stuck on the 20.04 kernel...no feature parity between different flavors (bare metal vs Proxmox VM vs Windows VM vs ...).
Moved to Truenas and it seemed to fit the bill...but then their RDMA restrictions kicked in...and the frustration began anew...
Been testing RHEL (specifically Almalinux) with Cockpit and surprisingly it works great! The installer is flawless, configuration is straightforward, the documentation is top notch, every flavor of RDMA under the sun, NVME-oF works OOTB...I might stick with this, once I've put everything through its paces.
It all started when I was trying to upgrade my storage...
Ended up with two racks and compute and storage separated.

I see that pattern quite often. New sellers with zero feedback selling dirt cheap stuff. It's obviously scam but never understood why they do that.
It's become a lot more common. The sellers will either use a tracking number for somewhere close to you that they acquire somehow, or give you a long story about shipping via HK or somewhere and that you will receive another tracking number later.
I both cases, it seems like they try to get you to wait long enough for funds to be released. I assume it works out some times since these are becoming quite common...

You mean they're doing that shenanigan like on Aliexpress where you buy and add another complimentary item to the cart as a stand-in for shipping fees?
It's a common tax evasion technique as shipping is included in the import duty value of the items. So by making it a separate item it's not on the invoice.
that's a scam. The photos with the yellow background come from the seller egoods.supply. There are tons of such listings recently, high capacity drives sold for nothing from zero rating sellers:MZ-ILS15T0 Samsung PM1633a 15.36TB SAS 12Gbps 2.5in SSD EMC 118000556 - BIG SALE | eBay

I give you, the deal of a lifetime…
Lot of 2 Solidigm D5-P5336 122.88TB OPAL, FIPS U.2 NVMe PCIe Gen4 Enterprise SSD price is set at 1772.99 USD. They’re even open to offers..
If my math is correct then that’ll be price of a whopping 7.2 USD/TB for PCIe gen 4 NVMe storage. Not bad…
I think the cheapest I’ve ever bought spinning rust for is around 5 USD/TB.
1 sold and 3 available at time of posting. Who dares to take a chance and hope to not receive a brick?!

People use eBay as some kind of cash laundering / float system via these 0 review sellers. They list something super cheap, then attach an unrelated tracking number to the order - takes weeks to get your money back.
I don't understand how eBay's fraud insurance is okay with their total lack of any kind of system to detect and prevent this scam.
Guys, could you please stop posting "Worst deals" in the "Great deals" topic? I subscribed to this thread hoping to find a few SSDs to upgrade my server, not to get notifications about who can find more scam eBay listings.
