hey everyone! currently for my house, i am running a network stack from unifi, (Pro-4 Gateway -> XG Ag switch -> 16 port POE, 24 Port Gigabit) and i was wondering if there was a cable that exists where it is a DAC cable, but SFP/SFP + on one end, to standard RJ45 on the other. and it it could be bidirectional that would be amazing, or if not i could make it work too.

maybe it all is just tubes. (1G/1G) 79.99/mo, 9.99 Static IP fee, 9.99 tech fee (even with your own equipment, this is a Prepay for any service you may need to have done, recently had them repull my 1500ft fiber drop from the hub to my house for free.)

Hey Everyone! Im planning on finally going and upgrading my old and aging X99 workstation for a "Go Anywhere - Do anything" -esk build. I have a Budget of 1200USD, and i am going to reuse my current storage and GPU(Gigabyte GTX 1080 - Watercooled) Here are the current specs and what i mainly use them for i7-5820K @ 4.7GHz 64GB DDR4 3000Mhz- I know its a little overkill for a gaming/light workstation Gigabyte GTX 1080 Gigabyte X99 Designaire r1.0 Corsair HX1000i everything is cooled under a custom hardline watercooling loop with 2 EK 360 Rads, Res/pump Combo, and waterblocks In Win 303 Case Currently i am using this for Gaming, Photo Editing, Software coding, and network stack testing/building. I am looking at an ITX build, with a 9900k, and 32GB. Ive been liking the look of the Phanteks Evolv Shift /X but have questions regarding the accessibility for the whole system water cooling, it looks like the X has more room and fit a 240 rad instead of 2 120 rads at 90deg of eachother. but im also up to hear about other case ideas if they are portable. Below is the preliminary spec of the new system i was looking at building. i9-9900k 32GB DDR4 GTX 1080 Samsung 960Evo 512GB M.2 NVME Boot 2x Samsung 850 Pro Sata 512GB storage Drives Corsair SFX 600W Titanium PSU Asus ROG Strix z390-i Mobo Phanteks Evolve Shift X

OK then. Here it goes. Thanks for the help

Yes that is correct

See I was planning on wiping out the original SSD and doing an entire fresh install. You are suggesting more of a rollback. Right? I'm also not talking about initializing it in the controller BIOS. But on the windows environment.

Hey everyone. So i may have screwed my in home server that I use for media streaming and backups. The main problem is that there are just to many problems and errors happening in the Windows OS and I'm feeling the best option is to do a clean install. But I also have a raid 1 array that is through an LSI controller(I can't remember the model). Would I lose the data because the drives would need to be re-initialized in windows or should it just auto detect it? When it was first setup I needed to initialize them. I am also using Windows 10 Pro

ok thanks for letting me know, ill be trying it in a couple days when the mobo gets here

no sorry i meant the backplane has two input sas connectors, then the drive sleds are a standard sata connection.

i would running two breakouts with that setup, one for the top connector, one for the bottom

here are the pics of the chassis i have for it i was thinking that if i plugged a 4way breakout into 4 sata ports on the mobo, then the sas on the other end into the backplane, it would be the same as running into a discrete HBA card. the drive sleds are sata, couldnt get a good pic of that

its a backplane that takes the sas main and then splits it back to sata for the 8 drive sleds,

Hey Everyone, I am in the process of building a new server for myself and i was wondering if it is possible to use a sas breakout connector, plug the 4 sata into the onboard sata 3, then the sas connector into the backplane? or does it not work like that?

which one of these would you recommend over the other? im leaning more towards the turbo except its on verison though

yeah it was put on monday
