Hi!
I'm in Europe and buying for a lab being built for my US employer. Unfortunately VAT registration is not going as fast as it should and we want to double-hit our wallets with both VAT (which we should be refunded but I dont see this happening) and USD->EUR exchange. US based sellers more than welcome, but PM me first.
This is what we are looking for:
Thanks!

This is what we are looking for:
- Intel DC3700/3710/35xx SSDs (suggestions welcome but we need fast write speeds as these will be used to host VM guests and potentially some of their data plus snapshots to be backed up). 400-800G.
- NVMe SSDs MLC-based, for LVM-Cache/SLOG/ZIL. Or suitable high performance options. 200-800G.
- 8 RDIMMs 1800MHz DDR3 of 32G each. Verified with memtest is a must.
- HBAs: M5015 or LSI branded HBA for PCIe2, but prefer PCIe 3 HBAs for IT mode.
- LSI 9840 or similar with 4e4i/8e8i and also pure 8e and 8i cards, 1G cache and up.
Thanks!
