    Question BOSS-N1 480GB RAID1 - - - performance not what I expected ?

    We just purchased a Dell PowerEdge R360 Server with a BOSS -N1. The performance is not quite what I expected, and I'm having a hard time finding reviews online to compare against. I am getting 1400MB/s READ and only 222MB/s WRITE. Can anyone confirm whether this is normal?

    [SOLVED] Upgrading dell poweredge r620

    I bought an used r620 from ebay that came with two e5-2609s. I also purchased 2 e5-2670s for a CPU upgrade. Is this a mistake? e5-2670s output much more heat and require more power. Are the PSU and cooling system of r620 powerful enough to support 2 e5-2670s?
