    SE-3016 connector reference

    Hi, I'm looking for a description of the connectors on the SE-3016 expander board. I've been searching and reading the threads here, but while there is plenty discussions, I didn't find anyone clearly stating the power pinouts for instance. This post in combination with this image seems to...

    DIY SAS enclosure part-agony

    @dalekphalm: Thanks! I'll skip 6 gbps for now, as you say, 3 will be plenty for my home stuff (and leave more money for disks). As for the "why build it?", it's a large part for fun and learning, partly because I have a bunch of backplanes I want to use for something, and part because this way...

Most say approx one week to order, so that's why I tried non-ECC. I guess I'll have a look abroad...

    New X9SPV, no boot/video

    I just got my nice new Supermicro X9SPV-LN4F-3QE. I'd be extremly happy, if it weren't for the fact that it doesn't boot... I get no VGA signal, and although I can access the IPMI web interface (so it's not completely dead!), the console redirection also says "no signal". In the web...

    Hosting VM data on virtual machine, same ESXi host?

    Hi! I'm about to get started with my first slightly more serious home virtualization project, and wanted to check that I'm not about to do something stupid... My plan has been this: I will have one ESXi host, on which I will among other things run a guest file server with passthrough to a...
