I just picked up an Intel D946GZIS http://www.intel.com/products/mother...gzis/index.htm
I've heard of many taking the higher quality motherboards and removing the audio post in order to fit into a nice SuperMicro case. Does anyone care of share their method of doing so? I was thinking a Dremel possibly, but I'd like to gather opinions as I'd like only to have to use this Motherboard as this will be a personal Dev server.
We have tried a few amd mobo's for the AM2 processors and the one we found which worked out of the box with all the onboard stuff was discontinued. Does anyone know of a good AMD AM2 mobo which has SATA working out of the box with CentOS?
look at the Combo deal. basically you buy ASUS M2N-LR Socket AM2 NVIDIA nForce Professional 3600 ATX Server Motherboard - Retail and get AMD Athlon 64 X2 3600+ Windsor 2.0GHz 2 x 256KB L2 Cache Socket AM2 Processor - Retail for free.
how's this combo for a windows web server with 4gb none ECC RAM and a 2U case to go with it?
I have this new 160 GB drive that I got from a friend and is in great working order. I can't install it in this machine (I would love to, but one of the ports on the motherboard is snapped off, so I can only plug in one SATA drive in at a time.
So I've decided to put it into my server machine, just an old computer I setup with Linux and whatnot to be used as a network server if anyone needs to put anything on it. Plus, it's fun to toy with.
Anyway, I ran into the problem that the motherboard is IDE, which means I can't plug it into my hard drive... Is there anyway (that won't cost me an arm and a leg) to plug in this new hard drive into an old computer?
Or am I just out of luck? Incidentally, if anyone knows how to replace an SATA plug in, or knows of a cable that can plug in two cables which in turn plugs into the mobo, let me know.. that'd be awesome.
We are hosting our software system which do calculation and file manipulation. Now we have Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 and would like to get Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 to increase our system performance.
Also we have other choice, get Intel Xeon E5405 Harpertown 2.0GHz to replace two above.
I think it is better to have one server box because one box easy to manage than two. Also Harpertown is much faster than these two together.
I have currently a server with a "Intel Core 2 duo e6640 2.4Ghz".
Now the company I'm at moving to a new data center and offering me a box for the same price with a Intel P3.4.
As I understand I would move from a two core to a single core CPU. In the first move letter they send me, they where saying I would get a CPU plus, plus 1 GB mem more.
I just bought one of these today but not only does it not have hdd's it doesn't have caddies... i can't find them anywhere, where do you guys get missing caddies?
if there is already an equivalent Xeon for the i7 processors?
I mean that for example C2Q Q6600 is equivalent for X3220 if I'm right.
Also, I guess those Servers will cost a lot more, not only because the processor is very costly but it also requires DDR3 RAM which is still nowadays quite expensive...
I recently came across the pricing of Intel Atom powered Dedicated Servers which are as low as $39 (not managed of course) but, the hard disk space and bandwidth bundled with it is tempting.
I currently host a vBulletin Forum of mine of a 512 MB VPS and it performs fine but, I was thinking whether it would be better on an Atom as most are bundled with 2 GB of RAMs.
Anyone can help me out here - whether am thinking in the right direction or am entirely wrong in thinking this?
I have just purchase a Intel Pentium II MB 440 LX DP Server it has UnixWare 2.1.3 on it but didnt not come with a login in name of password is there any way I can get throught this. I have contacted the seller who hasnt a clue..(Bought it from ebay)
Web hosting is a competitive business with thousands of providers in the market. Success as a web hosting provider often comes down to maximizing the number of customers we can support for each additional server added to the infrastructure. To improve our success in this equation, it becomes critically important to find and use the correct machine/severs - all for excellent prices.
So friends I was just guessing an approx. no. of clients I will be able to accommodate per Intel-Nehalem-Server, (depending on the server resource utilization).
i am thinking to run a video streaming site like youtube, as known such site will require huge bandwidth and space not to mention good server specs, as a starter i have this two options and would appreciate it if you give me your advice:
while I'm surfing the net i find this site where it has a price list for the parts of a computer and i saw an Intel Xeon processor and it's priced is affordable to me.. Hmm.. My question now is it Ok to buy this processor? because some of my I.T. friends here tell me that it is for Server based processor only and it is not suitable for PC HOME USER..
I've noticed many questions on this site about xeon and quad-core server technology and products.
