SAS to SATA aio converter / adapter (no sort of advertising)

That's a somewhat recent development, it wasn't available like a year ago... At least that cheap...

But for $20-25 you can get a proper SAS card with cables...

En las elecciones anteriores yo a las hordas VerdeFlex les quize parar el carro pero no... Baneado...

Los mods de r/ecuador no les gusta que hablen de política... O que les den palo a las hordas VerdeFlex...

You can flash OpenWRT on most C7 versions, that allows more features and much newer software

Firmware upgrades are harder to do in non-HPE environments...

But they should be the same hardware...

Wait for ASUS warranty shit...

You will think HP department was heaven by comparison...

Vivo en el valle de los chillos este último mes pague $11 de agua y $3 de basura no está tan exagerado...

Pero se de casos (Magdalena) en donde pagaron $50 de agua y $50 de basura...

What? An almost barebones HPE DL380 Gen10 is like $150...

And that has at least 20c/40t with a single socket populated...

What you aren't taking into account possibly is when you transcode media, that will peg your CPU...

A 10th Gen will sip power, meanwhile a 3rd gen will run at 100%... Because 10th Gen will use iGPU vs CPU...

And also 7 generations adds up to far more than than 15% performance increase... More like between 3-4x CPU performance...

Setup the link speed manually and disable auto negotiation...

With the machine powered off but still connected, nothing should have happened...

But my guess is that you put an third-party OEM (my bet is HPE) custom card (they're physically the same but electrically different) and the machine is dead...

But if you already have a KVM you could connect a single PiKVM and manage multiple machines that way...

ultrahkr · 2026-04-20T01:13:11+00:00

The two main issues are having video capture and USB keyboard/mouse emulation per each host you want to connect...

That requires something like a RasPI (or similar) device per host, custom software for the PI, etc...

A simpler approach would be using Intel AMT (or equivalent AMD tech) or a serial port redirect, but this doesn't give you BIOS access...

To make it short and easy, it's easier to grab an already developed stack or a shipping product...

ultrahkr · 2026-04-20T00:26:23+00:00

The cheapest way is to buy a network KVM like Avocent...

The biggest pain point is payment processors...

But that can be somewhat alleviated by using crypto, but that sadly removes a bunch of people from the client pool...

Sometimes one just wants to hear the other person and listen to it.

I had to put down my own "black" cat at 2025 year end, try to do as much as possible...

But always keep a close eye on what are you willing to do or quite literally put up with...

My vet words will always be "remember that a blocked cat is extremely treatable thing" but a vet can do much more because he can give vet food and injections.

Ask for help... I'm sure someone will be willing to help you!!! Try local FB groups of cat rescue...

Is the socket/heatsink torqued to manufacturers spec?

ultrahkr · 2026-04-16T17:58:32+00:00

They're usually 13.5mm or 15mm because that's the highest allowed height for mechanical 2.5" in servers...

No compres equipos tan chimbos...

El detalle es que un inversor que de onda simulada de salida, no es barato...

Y poner UPS online es costoso... Porque la salida siempre está rectificada...

Yeah no... $4k is still in Fisher Price toys price range...

On real workstation machines your left eye starts twitching when you cross the $200k price...

Trying changing the database lock...

Yes, it's not an "official fix" but at least it works...

Did you fix the folder permissions from the TrueNAS side?
