    I'm using it with a Kingston SSDNow V+200 (SF-2281) 60GB: # hdparm -tT /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdb1: Timing cached reads: 22586 MB in 2.00 seconds = 11302.81 MB/sec Timing buffered disk reads: 500 MB in 3.00 seconds = 166.43 MB/sec If it will fit your needs, I don't know. It's cheap and fulfill...

    Cheap SATA III PCI-E card for ESXi 5

    There are both internal and external versions, I have the card with two internal ports. Some cards have two internal and two external but only two ports will work at the same time I think. Check ASmedia 1061 on eBay and I'm sure you'll find cards with internal ports. For example this one...

    A guy is selling a Intel PRO/1000 GT Quad Port Server Adapter on Tradera (like eBay). The card is PCI-X 133Mhz, will it work in the normal PCI slot?

    Fujitsu or white box

    I won't need the warranty as it's only for my personal use I want it to be quiet and have low power comsumption. The server will run diskless or with one SSD, the VMDKs will be on a NAS. What do you mean with quad card?

    Fujitsu or white box

    My favorite retailer has the FUJITSU PRIMERGY TX100 S3P E3-1220V2 with 2x4GB ECC RAM and 2X500GB HDDs for ~$600USD. For the same price however I can build a white box with the following specs: Intel Xeon E3-1230v2 (with Hyper-Threading!) 32GB RAM (non-ECC) Gigabyte GA-B75M-D3H CHIEFTEC...
