    4P E4 Build Advice

    I've just build a 4P (E5-4650 ES) using the Supermicro heatsinks (SNK-P0050AP4) and with stock fans I have 58c/59c/63c/64c on cpu1-4 respectively. The fans do make too much sound for my comfort, and I bought the Noctua NF-B9 fans to replace the original fans. Currently too hungover to do any...

    Slow 4P - E5 4650 ES

    Just finished a 4P build, using Supermicro X9QRi-F+ and E5-4650 ES (QBED). Installed Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTE and followed the Ubuntu Desktop Installation guide here on this forum. Currently I only have 4x 4GB ramchips (1600mhz/reg/ecc), while waiting for the 12 that I have in backorder to arrive...

    I have some problems with my new Xeon 4P rig, need some help?

    I guess I should make a post here myself, since I'm one of the mentioned here, and I do have a few issues with my Xeon 4P. I bought 4x E5-4650 ES C1 (QBED), but I received 4x E5-4650 C2 (SR0KJ) instead. I have a Supermicro X9QRi-F+ mounted in a Xigmatek Elysium chassis, with a Corsair AX...

    HP Epxander Crad, what is Pcie used for?

    One way to power the HP SAS Expander, is to use the small powerboard from Orbit Micro: http://www.orbitmicro.com/global/pe-2sd1-r10-p-9375.html From the HP Expander thread here on Hardforum: http://hardforum.com/showpost.php?p=1035347825&postcount=287

    Whats the difference between these two ram modules?

    My Google-fu hasn't come up with an answer, so I try my luck here: Can anyone tell me the difference between these two ram modules? Kingston KVR1333D3D4R9S/8GHB Kingston KVR1333D3D4R9S/8G I can't figure out what the HB in the first partnumber stands for, other than the spec-sheet...

    Press-release from Toshiba. http://www.toshiba.co.jp/about/press/2012_08/pr0801.htm I guess this will be the new drives based on the manifacturing equipment and designs/IP from Hitachi, that WD had to hand over?

    ZFS Build Check

    Only 1 sff-8087 cable, or do you have 3 more cables allready? Are you gonna connect your ssd to your motherboard, since you're only getting two sas-controllers, making you able to connect to 4 backplanes? Do you have the two reverse breakout cables needed to connect to your backplane?

    Build an Xeon Ivy Bridge ESXi server. Which mobo?

    As long as you have your data in that chassis, and keep it in your house, you dont have what I'd consider a backup. You'll have a copy of your data, but it will be vulnerable if something happends to your house (it was you that brought up lightning and house on fire). If you dont have another...

    Build an Xeon Ivy Bridge ESXi server. Which mobo?

    It would be a backup as long as nothing happends to your house. As long as you dont have any offsite storage of your data, you're basically putting all your eggs in one basket. If you dont want to, or simply cant, store your data at another physically location than your house...

    Build an Xeon Ivy Bridge ESXi server. Which mobo?

    As long as you only have to reconnect your external 8-disk chassis when you boot between your Solaris and Windows/whatever, you're not gonna experience any rebuild on your raidz3. BUT you claim that you use that external chassis for backup aswell, and when (or hopefully only if) you have to do...

    Build an Xeon Ivy Bridge ESXi server. Which mobo?

    If I read correctly you're gonna have a 11 disk raidz3, with 8 disk in external chassis that you disconnect? With your focus on ECC-ram and the added security/feature you get with ZFS, I'm quite surpriced that you are willing to break a raidz3 on purpose, and essentially only have a "raid0"...
