I'm attempting to build a new media computer - MSI Z87I Kingston 16GB Intel 4770S Samsung 840 Pro EVGA 750 Ti HD-PLEX 250W DC-ATX I can't even get the OS installed. It boots up and the furthest I can get is about 20 seconds into the installation process. Sometimes it reboots before...

So, when I reboot my file server, after unlocking the encrypted volume, SMB needs to essentially be disabled and re-enabled before it'll work. This does not happen with NFS. Anything I can do about this?

Largest Pico I can find is 160W. HDPLEX H5.S MSI A88XI AC AMD A8-7600 Samsung SSD 840 Pro XFX R7-260X-ZNJ4 or R7-250A-ZLH4 (latter more likely as external input not needed) G.Skill F3-2133C11D-16GZL I could set the A8 at 45W though I'd rather not but what I'm more concerned with is a discrete...

Some very odd behavior and I'm stumped. Last night, scrub was slowing I/O to a crawl so I decided to cancel it. I'd also had some files that were mistakenly renamed so I ran a rollback on my General filesystem. All seemed good. A couple of hours later, no network protocols work - all the...

Not a PSU question but I figured I'd come to my [H] brethren.. Trying to avoid 3-phase power in the DC to save on monthly recurring costs. They offer 208V 60A single-phase but I'm having a heck of a time finding a PDU. I'd like to avoid having to go with 4 30A.

Thanks hom - that was on my list of to-do. I did, however, find the culprit. The Corsair Force GT I had in for ZIL testing is faulty.. but it made it look like the entire pool had a problem.

Anyone?

The hits just keep on coming with this thing. Things that I've observed - if I run CrystalDiskMark from a VM also on the same ESXi host, the results are fine. dd bench is still showing around 200MB/s write/500MB/s read. I determined that uTorrent is a POS but the ZIL + increasing the disk...

Unfortunately, Realtek on the ESXi side w/ VMXNET3. Other NICs are Realtek, Broadcom and Intel.

Hm, Bonnie never appears to run? I hit start and continuously reload but I'm not getting results. Just saw that Bonnie isn't working in Solaris 11. Will run dd bench momentarily. Edit: Memory size: 8192 Megabytes write 16.777216 GB via dd, please wait... time dd if=/dev/zero...

So I finally managed to purchase all of the gear I needed and build my fileserver. As expected, it's not behaving as expected. ;) Pertinent info: ESXi 5 Gigabyte Z77N-Wifi Solaris 11 Intel 3770 7x Hitachi 7k4000 Currently 8GB of RAM but will upgrade to 16 shortly (though the...

bump?

Has anyone tried a Z77E-ITX w/ ECC memory + a Xeon?

Bumping to see if anyone has had success w/ this.

Still no dice eh.

plz?

Damnit, why'd you have to show me that.. now I need 7 drives.

No VT-d.

I'd read that regarding Jetway support which is honestly what has given me pause, especially for a 180 dollar Mini-ITX board.

has this picture changed at all? I'm in the process of building a server around the Q as well, running into the same ECC/VT-d brick wall. The Jetway board seems most likely at current, which of course does not have ECC support but includes everything else I need.

AMD A8-3870K - 120 shipped (purchased 4/8/2012), brand new, box is open, didn't support IOMMU, powered up once. ASRock Socket FM1/AMD A75 - selling the proc, selling the mobo (purchased 4/8/2012). Installed, powered on once. 75 shipped.

Why is it so hard to find the following in one mini-ITX board: VT-d Support 16GB+ ECC Support (honestly not even a deal breaker) 2x Gbit LAN Ports Hopefully this Ivy Bridge batch yields something better though I haven't seen it yet. The closest two options today are the Jetway JNF9A-Q67 or...

fail, delete post

Sooo.. you're not waiting?

Nada? Doesn't have to be AMD.. don't see any high-quality options besides the Intel boards.

Just built my ZFS box (mickinfickin' Hudson chipset and no IOMMU.... rage) and I got to thinking should I just wait to buy drives (preferably 7K4000's) when prices get back to 10-20% higher than last year? http://camelegg.com/product/N82E16822145473?locale=US Is anyone else finding themselves...

AMD? I installed an A75M-ITX from AsRock and everything is great about the board.. except it doesn't passthrough. I should have been paying more attention. Rage.

I guess then the question would be what's the quietest with a fan that would fit..

Length. Would only take an inch or so to not hit the cage with the cables.

So... the Seasonic X-400/460 is just SLIGHTLY too big (rage) to fit. Any recommendations? Already aware of the Lian Li Extender which I'd rather not use.

Looking for a quick confirmation that I am thinking about this appropriately.. Lian Li Q25B connected via onboard controller: 1x Corsair Force GT 60GB - OS (ESXi 5 hopefully) A passed-through M1015: 6x 3.5" 4TB in a RAIDZ2 - 16TB of usable storage 1x Corsair Force GT 60GB - 8GB ZIL, 52GB...

I was wondering the same re: processor heatsink - hadn't seen much and I know people are probably trying to keep this particular case quiet given it's application. NewEgg says the maximum cooler height is 80mm - this seems to fit the bill; the Scythe Kozuti and Shuriken should fit the bill...

Thanks for the feedback guys.

I'd seen a lot of people going with the M1015, some having quite a bit of trouble with the IT mode.. figured I'd look for alternatives. Seems like I should just bite the bullet.

Hardware: Lian Li PC-Q25B ASRock A75-ITX AMD A8-3870K Seasonic SS-460FL GSkill Ripjaws 16GB Kit Noctua NF-P14 1 OS SSD, 1 L2ARC SSD, 1 ZIL SSD (might combine some of this, not sure yet) The case will take 6 drives and I plan to fill it with 3 or 4TBs. Basically, I just need the controllers -...

Is http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813500056 my only option if I'm looking for a i7 + 6x SATA mini-ITX?

Yes, the plan is to go with a ZFS build for this in a PC-Q25B. I'm not trying to get massive performance out of it so the onboard RAID will likely suffice but are there any boards that allow for a PCI option? I'm still trying to decide between Atom or an i7 board (dedicated ZFS on the Atom or...

Is there any option out there for this yet? I see that SuperMicro has a D525 board but no D2700.. box will be a ZFS server.
