To give some background, I currently have a Dell R730XD running Proxmox that hosts AMP (Application Management Panel) for game servers. I would like to offload the AMP instance onto its own dedicated server. I have been having issues with some game servers requiring good single core performance...

Hey I am working in NoC and my company is letting us play with any machines that are labeled as Ewaste. I am playing around with a Cisco 2800 but I have almost no experience with this. The only thing I know how to do is Flash OS - Did this for Cisco 3800, I assume its the same method for 2800...

I own a Dell PowerEdge R910 server. After being in storage, for a while, I decided to start using it again. I put memory into the machine, plugged it in, and received an error message, on the LCD panel, stating "E1234 Memory Riser E Power Failure". I re-seated the riser, and kept getting the...

[Moderator note: No technical questions or issues. Moving discussion from Storage to Opinions and Experiences.] After 8 years of service, my trusty (but slow) 256GB sata ssd (which was my main ssd and later my server's boot drive) will finally be replaced. Its power-on hours equal to 5 years...

I want to add 4TB of storage to my home server and I am weighing my options. The drive(s) will be powered on 24/7, fully written, and mostly being read from. The stored data isn't critical but it would suck to lose it. Speed isn't an issue, but faster is better. The options are: 4TB m.2 ssd...

Hi, a few months ago I purchased the parts for a home server. While putting it all together I ran into a roadblock and haven't made much progress since. I cannot get it to post, nor can I figure out why. I'm not getting any beep codes, and there is seemingly no information from the motherboard...

I saw another post on here about this but I really couldn't make sense of it. I bought a Silverstone RM43-320-RS for a file storage server (like pics, music, other files and Plex. It's not loaded down by several users at one time, normally just me and maybe my wife for the most part. I am using...

I'm in a bit of a pickle here. I ordered a 24gb Tesla M40 for machine learning, and while it works perfectly fine in my main system, (7950x3d, MPG b650i edge wifi) It refuses to allow the Precision 5820 it's meant for to boot, or even output video through the NVS 510 that ALSO 100% works...

I've got a HPE ML350 GEN9 Tower server which is fairly quiet during the winter. Like, my laptop and PC are louder than it. During the summer however, things are getting out of hand. There are two areas that are problematic. These happens to be the VR P1 location at the back of the case -...

Hi world, It' a classic: Power on, the fans run up but it doesn't POST. The Q-Code is 00. I waited for hours because of possible Mem-Training but no change. Asus ESC4000A-E10 (all (power)cables etc were pre-attached, as usual with these systems, they all seem to sit tight) 1x AMD Epyc 7543P...

So i read about this doomsday scenario where not having ECC-capable hardware might lead to corruption that could delete the whole storage pool especially with ZFS. I wonder, when i have an external HDD where i automatically backup all my important files from the NAS weekly do i risk infecting...

If anyone might have some input, it would be appreciated. I'd like advice on how to go about setting up an extended-family online but private center for archiving historical and current photos, maybe some scans of old letters, etc., as an online, stable historical record. It would allow family...

Hey! Someone recently gifted me a Synology Rackstation RS3614RPxs and I'm planning to setup NixOS/vagrant/libvirt on it. Removed the dust, switched in some new drives, so far so good.
