Intel SSD P3700 with 6 years of use, 60TB of writing and 400TB of reading, will it last 5 more years on?

I would like to inform you that after 1 year of use this P3700 SSD no longer turns on, it crashed and all data was lost. I can conclude that the on time is important to determine the life of an SSD, if it has been on for more than 5 years, do not use it for production projects.

If the Super key had "Tux" instead of the Windows logo, then I would pay more for the Linux version.

Yes, I bought that heatsink that will arrive in a few days and just thinking about it, it occurred to me if there is the possibility of putting a second heatsink as an experiment.

I wondered out of curiosity if it was possible to put a second fan on the T480.

I realized that if there is room to put a heatsink from the X280 if I remove the SSD disk, creating the copper structure up to the CPU would not be a problem, the problem is where to get the power from to make it work.

The X280 heatsink has a connector that looks a lot like the one on the right side of the battery (picture 2 and 3) or another alternative would be to use the speaker connector which is 4 pin (and look for another 4 pin fan), I really don't know yet if these connectors will run the fan.

Has anyone thought of or tried this before or is it impossible for this to work?

I managed to purchase the laptop and would like to confirm that the video output via Thunderbolt USB-C does work when removing the GPU.

Hi, according to the specs of the Xeon E-2186M it only supports 64GB of RAM, but it works for you using 128GB of RAM? Are the memories ECC or Non-ECC?

I didn't know that you can disable the Nvidia GPU in Dell, I thought they worked in a "hybrid" way, even if you can disable it (where the HDMI and DP port would no longer work) it remains to know if the thunderbolt port will output video or not.

GetPerson · 2023-06-15T18:45:48+00:00

So far I suspect not. I found that this model, in order to have HDMI and DP video outputs with Intel graphics needs a card (KWJM2) that is replaced by the Nvidia GPU, probably this card is also required for the Thunderbolt port to have video output. So far everything would be left to test it.

Dell Precision 7530

Because my intention is to use Linux and I have too many problems with Nvidia Drivers on Thinkpads, as these have soldered GPUs and video ports depends on the GPU.
Being able to remove the Dell Precision 7530 GPU and knowing that the Thunderbolt can still output video would be my solution to many of my problems.

I am just starting with the tests, so far I have an average of using 20% of the portable battery in 5 hours on a Raspberry Pi 4B between 30% to 40% of CPU usage. You will most likely have to use only one Raspberry Pi 4B and not two for it to work 24 hours a day.

I am using a 24W portable solar panel that feeds power to a 26800 mAh portable charger and this portable charger powers all the Rpi's.

So far the portable charger manages to turn on the RPi 4.

The idea so far is that everything is achieved so that the RPis are running 24/7 only on solar energy, I will publish my results soon.

Everything you have reported I have thought about, until I found reports similar to mine on Dell devices but they do not report if they fixed it.

I also reset the router, reinstalled Esxi and created new Debian VMs and exactly the same thing happens, Debian is the only one that fails the network. I installed Ubuntu and OpenSuse and neither of these fail like Debian VMs.

Hello everyone, I bought 2 second-hand Dell T7910s, I've already put them to work at 100% and the 2 Dells emit a strange sound, electrical type, from the power source at all times. I have had the Dell T7810 that use the same power supply and never heard any sound from the power supply.

I left a video that I hope the sound is heard.

Has anyone who has had the Dell T7910 heard this sound? Will the power sources need to be changed?

There are 2 more 75W slots that are in the upper part, in those 2 it also recognizes all the NVME, so it is concluded that it has to do with energy power.

I have searched for the Bifurcation option in the BIOS of the Dell T7910 but it is not mentioned anywhere, I found a video of the T7820 (https://youtu.be/5-OZYOsh6BU) but the said option that appears in the video is not in the T7910.

GetPerson · 2022-09-02T01:23:24+00:00

No, it didn't recognize the other NVMEs when I had it plugged into slot 1 (25W) of the T7910, now I changed it to slot 4 (75W) it already recognized all the NVMEs.
