The topic of ES Xeons has been mentioned in a few threads recently, and I'm somewhat ignorant and it's time to educate myself (and others I'm sure). Intel do have a support page that gives some basic information on Engineering Samples (and do point out that they are property of Intel) "Nathan_P" over at [H]ard|Forum has posted...

I've been building a network OS for end-of-service-life switches. It's far enough along to be worth showing. NOSaic is built from source — its own cross-toolchains, then glibc, busybox, s6, FRR and the kernel, per architecture. A clean clone plus Docker and make gets you a bootable switch image. Two boards run it from their own flash and forward in hardware: Arista DCS-7050SX2-72Q — x86_64, Trident2+, Aboot, A/B Firmware slots. 10G and 40G up, OSPFv2 and OSPFv3...

Hey folks, All found. I'm desperately looking for old Cumulus setups - Specifically cumulus-linux-3.7.16-bcm-amd64.bin and cumulus-linux-4.3.0-bcm-amd64.bin (it doesn't have to be the exact version number, and 3.7 and 4.3 is fine, but it MUST be bcm and amd64 - I have mlx-amd64 and bcm-armel, but not bcm-amd64) Nvidia seems to have taken down those setups - Not even my Mellanox / Nvidia Distributor can get them Would be amazing if anyone could help me out.

A lot of these Chinese leaf blowers on Amazon claim a rotation speed of 1.5 million RPM or higher. Sounds like BS to me.

1. Introduction I've recently been through the process of trying to modify the fan configurations of a number of my servers from the stock OEM configuration to something else to reduce the amount of noise they produce. These servers were often designed without noise output as a meaningful consideration, and introducing that as a constraint has some trade-offs. My initial approach was to buy as many of the largest, highest CFM fans that I could, work out a way to mount them...

Hello, Few months ago I purchased Hasivo S1100WP-8GT-SE , every time I change the IP address type to dynamic it reverts back to the default static IP, I have emailed Hasivo asking if there is a newer firmware that solves this issue but no response. Anyone here using S1100WP-8GT-SE that has newer firmware if so could you please share the firmware or able to get response from Hasivo can request for a newer firmware. My device...

I picked up a BF2 a while back and I'm looking to turn it into a router but I'm struggling to find a low power host device that will actually cool this thing. Anyone have any suggestions? I'm expecting most of the raw packet pushing to be done on the asic but wouldn't mind having a "performant enough" x86 host to terminate chacha20-poly1305 sessions for the sessions I can't leverage the AES offload in the NIC for. I'd love something small like the t740 but my understanding is that the... Bluefield 2 Host Suggestions

Inspired by https://www.servethehome.com/sas-expanders-diy-cheap-low-cost-jbod-enclosures-raid/ , my shallow-depth rack (500mm) and the fact that I live in an apartment, I was looking for rackmounted, short-depth cases available in Europe and found a pretty meh market. The best option was Sliger's CX3701 which I could even get sliding rails for. The only downside to that was the fact that mini-ITX is quite... Custom JBOD "Motherboard"

I am brand new to the forum, so I figured I would introduce myself by showing one of my projects. Comments, Compliments and critisisms are welcome. Like most good homelab projects, Moribus wasn't really planned. It evolved. Moribus originally started life as a Dell PowerEdge T610 running Unraid. For years it handled media storage and general server duties without complaint, but eventually I ran into two problems: I... Unraid Server - Project "Moribus"

The original post is getting a little congested so I'll split up that original Post into more individual topics Here my experiences with modding the M700/M900 Tiny desktop BIOS, should work equally well on the larger versions too as they share the same BIOS Before even contemplating this you WILL need a 'EEPROM BIOS USB Programmer CH341A' available on EBAY by the millions and cost <$10 (incl shipping) This IS Vital to avoid having a brick if something goes wrong You can flash pretty well...
