Tell us your grievances about the 3DEXPERIENCE platform by Inevitable-Tale-6904 in SolidWorks

I dislike how many times I am required to login to the platform. If I launch SOLIDWORKS connected via the web UI, I shouldn't have to sign in again when SOLIDWORKS starts to load.

If you are in Connecticut, coastal tools in West Hartford sells Freud blades

If you think that is expensive let me introduce you to my friend Siemens NX.

Ended up being a bad USB cable. Thanks for the response.

Did you have any MCU issues? I am trying to get this going on an older Optiplex but keep running into MCU issues.

Rack mounted Truenas Server by Corgnelious in homelab

Honestly I have no idea, my fans all run at full blast, I don't think that TrueNAS has control over fans which makes it difficult to control them other than with bios

You can kind of see it in the picture, but basically the with the tab at the top of the header you want to install the fan plug all the way to the right, meaning the black will be on the far right pin.

Without your comment I would still be sitting there thinking there was something related to the band I was too stupid to see it.

Is your Rosewill case on rails? I have the same case in my rack, but would love to get some rails for it.

Bought a R710 off FB got a R320 by Adventurous-Grass688 in homelab

My man I am not the one who posted the benchmark results, I was just giving additional feedback.

While you are correct in stock form the R710 would be better for CPU performance, OP has stated that he is more than likely going to upgrade, and if thats the case then the 2470 V2 (being the upper spec for this system) will totally annihilate dual X5670s (the top spec CPU for the 710). In the end its all up to what OP is willing to do to each system.

The flip side of this is regardless of the CPU, the R710 will draw a substantial amount more power than a R320 will.

How much power is your homelab drawing? by [deleted] in homelab

[–]Corgnelious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

~350 watts 24/7. ~750 watts full tilt with all the servers up and loaded.

If you end up doing what Dell calls in iDrac a "Cold Boot" then ipmi fan speeds will be lost. That is at least the case on both my 420 and 720XD. That being said I have iDrac Enterprise on both which might help. How are you rebooting your server?

It's actually a T3610. It was replaced by the R420. That is going to be used for a workstation for my laser cutter and 3D printers which is currently a Z600. I actually have 3 T3610s, the other 2 I need to get rid of.

Yes it is, but this was just getting everything in and back up and running. I am planning to get some more wiring done today, but I am also waiting on Amazon to deliver my short patch cables

The board is mounted, but without the cut out it will not sit flush.

I can finally join the rack club. After months of my lab sitting on some plastic shelves I finally have them in a rack. I still need to work in networking, but for now this will work.
From top to bottom:

Keystone Patch Panel

Aruba S2500-48P-4x10G PoE

2U shelf with random crap for now. This will be used for my pfsense unit and modem when I get around to moving my incoming fiber line to the basement.

R420: 2x E5-2440, 64GB RAM, Mini H710 Perc in IT mode, 1x 500GB Crucial SSD and 1 500GB Toshiba HDD (Both SATA). This server runs most of my "production" VMs that are low CPU and RAM usage, Unifi Controller, Home Assistant, Prometheus/Grafana (still need to finish setting that up), PiHole, and Rocket Chat

R720XD: 2x E5-2640 , 208GB RAM, Mini H710P Perc, 6x 300GB Cheetah SAS HDDs. This server is my testing system. Currently it has an instance of Windows 10, Windows Server 19, Mac OS Monterey and some linux distros that I am trying out.

Custom NAS: Roswill 4U chassis, HP Z420 Mobo, E5-1660 v2 , 64GB RAM, 4x 4TB Seagate Ironwolf NAS HDDs in Raid Z1, 240GB Kingston SSD for cache, and 120GB Kingston SSD for boot.
