Does anyone that own this board have ESXi running on it? I'm thinking I might try setting up an all-in-one multi-OS system using device passthrough, and I was hoping someone could take a screenshot of the available passthrough device screen. Specifically, I'm wondering about onboard USB...

I'm actually starting to be curious about the NH-D9DX i4 3U instead; it seems to be identical to the NH-D9L, and has one more heatpipe compared to the regular NH-U9DX i4 (along with being a lot newer). I've been able to find a couple reviews of people running it on high wattage CPUs (including...

I've got a v2 I think I'm finally ready to make a build with, but I've got some questions about heat flow. I'm sticking to air cooling, and I'm planning to use a regular ATX power supply instead of an SFX one. The problem is, I think I'm overreaching for what I want to fit in versus the cooling...

Looks like this popped up on Newegg finally at $290: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157588

I'm actually doing a similar build right now with the same case, but with an Asrock C2750D4I mobo (the octa-core Atom variant). I did some tests with Plex, using the highest bitrate Bluray remuxes I had lying around (30mbit+ video bitrate), and the board was able to handle one 12mbit 1080p...

My setup doesn't really compare to most people in this thread (if only I had the living situation for a rack...), but I'm proud of it all the same :) Home Server 38.75TB Physical / 24.75TB Logical Case: Sharkoon Rebel 12 PSU: Corsair HX850 Motherboard: ASRock X79 Extreme6 CPU: Intel Core...

Before anyone says anything: yes, I realize how ridiculous of a request this is. Trust me, I don't want to be looking for something like this either. But it's not for me, it's for a faculty member, and if any of you work in academia, you know that tenured faculty will not budge one bit when they...

Quick question- I quite like the look, size, and price of that case, but I need to be able to fit 3x 4in3's into it, as well as a single SSD for the OS. I noticed in some pictures I found online (namely, this one) that it looks as if the very, very top "bay" (where the USB, eSATA, audio, and...

Does anyone know which of the Crossover eBay resellers offers a service to verify no bad pixels for a few dollars more?

I'm wanting to put together a new ESXi server (my first, actually), to just run some simple VMs to provide services for myself and my roommates (AirVideo for their iPads, Subsonic for music/movies for my Android stuff, an XBMC database/updater VM, etc.), so I'm probably going to go for...

Damn damn damn. So tempting. I want to pick up four to make a RAID array to store VMs on, but I can't shake the urge to wait and see if they drop down to $80 or even $70 sometime soon; these M4s seem to just keep getting cheaper and cheaper. Well, that, and if I bought them now, they'd just sit...

Okay, I'm guessing my gut knows the answer to this already, but does anyone know if this firmware flash works on a Mac? I'd really rather be lazy at work and not have to take the few we have out and find PCs to flash them on.

HP said way earlier that they'll refund the $38 shipping fee (at least partially) for orders through HP Small Business, right?

I, too, am hopping on the "ordered from HPSMB, got cancelled, got confirmation email" train. It's made me hopeful it'll go through, but realistically, I know it probably won't. In other news, just got this from the CDW order I put in after availability had switched from "In Stock" to "Call":

Has anyone that purchased from onSale via the Amazon marketplace gotten a cancellation email yet? I'm figuring it's going to happen to my order, but so far I haven't heard of anyone yet who did it through Amazon get one.
