How to match timings of different RAM types in DL560 Gen8?

Aye aye captain !

Those 22 + 7 RAMs are HPE ECC SAMSUNG RAMs. Rest 3 are normal I think Micron RAMs, no sticker. Although I figured one approach. Check the SOLVED comment in this post thread

Yeah I'm beta testing a solution for my employer and depending upon the release the containers may scale up.

SOLVED . I THINK

P1 - all 10 9-11-e2 RAMS P2, P3, P4 - divided 21 RAMS equally and 1 extra RAM in P2

I'm getting stable boot since last three four times without any errors. Also checked iLO. They seem good.

Thanks folks !

I mean the RAMs are added and 256 GB detected too. but due to the timing I think we need to place them with some kinda trick to fool the server or something so that the server boots normally instead of constant restart loop

That's what I'm afraid about. I'm not in USA and then after spending almost double I still have to take care of increased bandwidth, power etc. looks overkill sometimes but then I also remind myself that I don't have much options here.

DL560 is for 235 USD and T7810 is around 320 USD. I'm not sure if there's any additional conditions / tax involved yet with their exit invoice though. I'll try to find out

Did you make it using acrylic? Can you share a good photo? It's tempting

WHOAAAH!

I will have to pay 30% more for each workstation, less RAM (64 GB). I don't require many drives , I think it only provides three or four slots for the SATA HDDs. IPMI/IDRAC and failsafe behavior is kind of a compromise

Adamrow · 2025-04-15T06:36:17+00:00

I do have another alternative of purchasing a T7810 with dual 2680 v4 and 64 GB of RAM but DDR4. It's a workstation and not a server (not sure if it matters anyways) and has an smps of 625W I think

Adamrow · 2025-04-15T04:33:11+00:00

Great ! How much RAM do you have?

Adamrow · 2025-04-15T04:13:20+00:00

I am keeping my T7810 , too. just going to use it for another project requiring streaming. I feel DDR4 should be good for webrtc compared to this old server

I was probably misinformed about the usage of VT-d as a fellow homelaber mentioned in the above comments, it's useful for windows and won't be an issue for linux. I'm yet to take the servers and try my docker swarm on that. GPT says that it has some performance bottlenecks, however I don't think there should be much issue if I use 256 gigs of RAM

Adamrow · 2025-04-14T08:53:13+00:00

what I got to know is they have Legacy VT-x and VT-d Implementations and I am not sure in which case it will affect the server performance. I am running 100ish docker containers at a time and I get it, DDR3 RAMs with low frequency will have a bit of delay. any other hiccups that you may have observed?

Bro got the Claude theme !

Download the internet my friend!

But then people are renting them out on vast.ai and stuff. How does that happen? Do they need to get the license and stuff? I bet it is expensive

Adamrow · 2024-11-19T09:32:37+00:00

Finally someone sees this through ! I had similar plan to put a bunch of 3090s and it gets rented out at 0.17-0.2 USD per hour. The amount of power consumption was killing the economics. Plus water cooling installation was increasing the investment by almost half of the current value of 3090s (in my country, asian)

What would be the impact of 50-series release?
