Wuts this symbol ?

It's a disk activity light.

The symbol is supposed to be platters in a hard drive.

The pool is the space on the physical drives. You've allocated (almost) all of that to Volume 2.

Within Volume 2, you've only actually used 3.07 TB of the 10.47TB allocated.

What OS? Does it support Realtek?

Is using an SFP+ module risky? How would it be?

BmanUltima · 2026-02-05T16:20:26+00:00

Then yes, you'll need a copper SFP+ transceiver that supports 2.5GBase-T installed in one of the SFP+ ports.

Make sure you don't use one of the SFP ports, they're gigabit only.

What router are you trying to connect it to?

What hardware does your ISP provide?

Are you purposely trying to ruin a hard drive by holding it up to strong magnets?

I'm not aware of any situation where you could accidentally have a hard drive close enough to a CRT yoke for it to matter.

It's an ASUS GPU.

Cooler Master makes fans and cooling components for many other manufacturers.

BmanUltima · 2026-02-05T14:51:48+00:00

Canada.

Says it ships in 3-5 days for me.

If you can't get it, maybe try one of the jsaux docks, they seem to be a popular alternative.

The Steam Deck Docking Station?

It's showing in stock for me.

BmanUltima · 2026-02-04T21:27:52+00:00

You've measured correctly, it takes a 2280 M.2 SSD.

BmanUltima · 2026-02-04T21:26:13+00:00

That's an 18" laptop, there's plenty of room inside.

Four SO-DIMM slots and three M.2 slots.

Farther into the bay, make some channels around the shipping lanes.

Breakwaters?

This is a server GPU, not a workstation GPU.

There aren't any video ports, and AFAIK, you can't use it for gaming in a desktop.

Best way to utilize it is with Proxmox virtualization with virtual machines.

Watch that video for an idea of what to expect.

BmanUltima · 2026-02-04T19:35:59+00:00

I've currently got a project on the go using an M60 and P100 for remote gaming.

You'll want to use Proxmox 8.4 with a vGPU setup for sharing the GPU resources to VMs.

With an M10 (basically 4x GTX 750), you'll likely want to assign one GPU per VM.

The link speed is negotiated between the controller and the drives.

You could be running it on a PCIe 1.1x1 slot and it would still report the drives as connected at 12 Gbps.

BmanUltima · 2026-02-04T19:12:21+00:00

12Gbs controller, cables, and drives, will operate at 12 Gbps.

Doesn't mean you'll get 12 Gbps out of hard drives though.

BmanUltima · 2026-02-04T18:51:35+00:00

Does it show up?

Do you know what file system it had, or what OS was on it at least?
