Hello I recently purchased a Chelsio T6225-CR card but I need a low profile bracket for it. Before I try ordering a bracket from China or something, would anyone happen to have one they would be willing to send? I can pay shipping.

Got a 3D printer or a friend with one?

Unfortunately no.

 

[eduncan911]

Unfortunately no.

I've created and printed several for our servers. However, it does require the physical part for all the measurements and such.

OP can check thinguniverse and I'm sure someone has the files for one, but probably more expensive than the real thing.

1x 2U EPYC SP3/SP6 or Threadripper cooler (without fan, but takes 60mm fans)
1x Dynatron A39 (3U EPYC SP3/SP6 cooler, includes fan)
1x Supermicro BPN-SAS2-826EL1 12-bay 3.5" disk backplane
2x Supermicro PWS-920P-1R PSUs
1x Delta 550W Redundant ATX PSU, with 3x 550W DPS-550AB-13
1x PCIe x8 to OCuLink-8i Card, both high and low profile bracket

I'm in San Francisco, 94131. Would prefer local pickup, but could ship the coolers or the PCIe card if you really wanted.

Really cool to know libraries have stuff like this. I would have never thought to even check.

Well I bit the bullet and ordered some metal brackets off eBay. I found a US seller and the brackets worked great. I should have just bought a card with the correct bracket preinstalled though.

I only found out mine does because they posted about it. I have used the service a few times printing adapters. I printed an elite strap adapter for my Quest headset that if I had bought retail would have been like $40. I'm going to have to use them again when I next add drives to my server as my used case don't have any more trays and the drive rails are sized so you have to use trays.

My wife works for a local library and they're interested in getting a 3d Printer and now I'm curious if this is something I could tell them that patrons could do with it in order to stoke the flame a bit more so they move on it. I have my own 3d printer at home, but this is an awesome offering for patrons that need simple bits for their personal use and would encourage more people to come in and become patrons.

it's been a great thing for our library - they do have someone on staff that knows how to deal with the printer (and they only have printers at one branch) and they only keep a few colors of filament in stock. the rules are no weapons, nothing obscene, and nothing that will take more than 8 hours to print per part. you can email the files to the branch that has the printer and you can use the computers at any branch (or your own obviously) to design the part.

Local pickup in Santa Clara (or can meet around SF South Bay, Palo Alto to San Jose):
- Linksys Cisco SRW2048 48-port GigE switch (with hidden CLI); WebUI is now unusable (unless you've IE6 ;-))
- Juniper SRX240H2 firewall (no rack ears or slot covers)

Not worth shipping.

Well, I still have it, but it would be trashed early January.

I can probably ship it at your expense, it's not too heavy. But this may take a week or two (or three), holidays.

If my wife is out of town next week, might be able to make a trek down to Palo Alto to pick all these up. Would hate to see these wasted.

 

[eduncan911]

I have a dead ICX7150-C12P. The power supply tests good but nothing on the board or front panel light up.

I know that the PSUs in these are common failure point, so if anyone wants the power supply from it before I recycle it, it's yours for the cost of shipping. Just PM me.

Thanks again for this! It arrived and is in storage at the non-profit, as a backup PSU.

Well, If nobody wants it, it goes to recyclers.
Too bad, just learned it can support 4GB ;-)
