    Multiple SFP+ Ports In A Rackable Network Server

    Ya I like that plan. Not sure why this hasn't crossed my mind before. Now it just comes down to finding a layer 3 switch that can handle 10 GbE. Needed to get one eventually so now is as good a time as any. Does anyone know of any good 10 GbE layer 3 switches? I know there's a good amount and...

    Multiple SFP+ Ports In A Rackable Network Server

    I have a 10 GbE network and want it to stay that way, lol.

    Multiple SFP+ Ports In A Rackable Network Server

    So instead of buying https://www.netgate.com/products/xg-1541.html and then buy the Chelsio expansion card which gives you 2 SFP+ ports I was shooting for something that would get me 4 - 6 SFP+ ports. There isn't anything that Netgate has that gives you more than 2 SFP+ ports.

    Looking For Hardware Raid Controller

    What terminology was it? Software RAID isn't going to work for my purposes and its slower than hardware RAID, so count that out. The RAID card I choose is because I didn't want to spend like $100+ on a RAID card. It was recommended as well by a few sources from Newegg and such so I'll be testing...

    Looking For Hardware Raid Controller

    I'm looking for a hardware raid controller card for my mobo. What I am working towards on this machine is installing either Hyper-V server or ESXi as the host on a 1TB HDD. Then the hyper-visor will have multiple VM's running on top of it. I want to setup RAID 1 for this so if one of the HDD's...
