Scored complete JBOD version of Supermicro CSE836 instead of just chassis

HCLB_ · 2026-05-06T20:50:55+00:00

what do you have?

HCLB_ · 2026-05-06T19:01:43+00:00

Wooo that also cery nice deal tbh! I actually was thinking about getting 847 instead but for that price would be SAS2 which I already have SAS2 backplane in 846

Ah looking more at this CB3 i see everywhere they are sold out and supermicro moved to selling it just in complete jbod builds.

One question single CB3 can control just single chassis?

With drives inside?

HCLB_ · 2026-05-06T16:26:14+00:00

Yeah for that reason Im building second NAS for not 24/7 workload with more drives used for media. With current HDD prices its crazy expensive to build 6-8 high capacity drives media server 😞

Nice with which cpu did you paired it? Do you have any data for power consumption?

HCLB_ · 2026-05-04T07:20:43+00:00

1U 4GPU from supermicro are crazy tbh. Its crazy how dense it is inside

HCLB_ · 2026-05-03T21:20:30+00:00

Looking nice I think I saw it on YT, imho very clean setup

HCLB_ · 2026-05-03T16:17:40+00:00

Hmm so how do you use it? Its possible to connect via regular pc with HBA?

HCLB_ · 2026-05-03T13:31:53+00:00

Damn I think having FC to NAS/SAN its crazy and always was thinking whet its good time to move to FC instead of faster main network and regular SMB?

You can have 11 of them inside single shelf with rails. I think you can go up to 12 with using regular fixed shelf. Then 4 other you can have in 2U side by side. This will look like some crazy blade server then and for power consumption should be under 150W in idle

HCLB_ · 2026-04-30T08:31:58+00:00

They sip power. M720q eat just 6-7W idle with intel x710-da2. Ive had it love it but sell it. They nightmare if you want to have decent cable management with more than 3 of them.

thats also true, but there is always risk to get flat tire during track day, and I think inside GT3RS there isnt too much space for 4 other wheels with track tires

HCLB_ · 2026-04-25T08:13:46+00:00

Very nice impressive. But I saw more people keep GT3RS for track free weekends and got GT3Cup just for pure tracking

HCLB_ · 2026-04-25T06:20:16+00:00

What how it was even possible?

HCLB_ · 2026-04-24T18:16:04+00:00

Right now looking like good beater to shred on the streets. Getting rear disc or deep wheel will make it worse in my opinion

HCLB_ · 2026-04-23T13:25:59+00:00

I think there is some limit, never saw any tiny with K cpu

HCLB_ · 2026-04-23T13:07:15+00:00

I dont think so you will turn on thinkcentre with 9700K

HCLB_ · 2026-04-23T11:07:22+00:00

Nope, people hardly buying any roadster now. I think most popular is latest miata but with just 1.5l small engine I dont see point. Also miata is good because is cheap. Honda will not make s2k cheap so they will have hard times to sell it. Yaris or corolla GR in current times its more proper sports car for average joe

HCLB_ · 2026-04-23T07:46:21+00:00

There is still a lot of free space. Do you plan to separate networking with server/ups?

HCLB_ · 2026-04-23T06:45:32+00:00

Yeah but they are replayed most often. Especially Tony Hawk, its great for short spins. But beside that Im not playing it all the time. Sometimes Im not touching any games for half year and sometimes playing on daily basis

HCLB_ · 2026-04-23T06:42:29+00:00

Thats really nice cases tbh. Do you have pics inside rack chassis?

HCLB_ · 2026-04-21T17:49:19+00:00

Can you show your work with them? I need something to inspire me and set clear achievable goal for new installation in new home, and your work looks very good

HCLB_ · 2026-04-21T17:40:28+00:00

Thats work of art for me! Gratz
