  1. U.2 SSD Question Would this cable work in my system with this SSD?

  2. Power Supply Question Corsair 1000 Watt RMx Fully Modular RM1000X ATX This power supply has; 8 x PCIe Connector and 11 x SATA Connector. Is it possible to swap the PCIe Connectors for more SATA connectors? (To have more SSD drives). Thanks in advance.

  4. Thanks. the BSOD appears before I get chance to extract any files. Even in safe mode
  5. Ah okay. Thank you for your support and time. Regards.
  6. Thank you. I was just put off by the clock speed of those silvers vs my old E5's. It's Cubase (Audio Workstation), I think it prefers more cores rather than a focus on speed, but I could be wrong.
  7. Thank you for responding. I contacted ASUS and they said it's because the motherboard will not support windows 10. I reverted back to my Windows 8 Installation so I don't have those files sorry. Thank you though.
  8. Budget (including currency): Not sure yet Country: United Kingdom Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Music/Audio Workstation Other details: My current workstation won't work on Windows 10 so need a new system (I bought Windows 10, tried booting which worked, however after being on for 30 second, blue screen of death) Hello, My current system is around 7 years old, I bought the parts in 2014 from Scan.co.uk and built it myself. Spec: Processor: 2 x Intel® Xeon® Processor E5-2643, 4 Cores, 8 Threads, 10M Cache, 3.30 GHz, 8.00 GT/s Intel® QPI Motherboard: ASUS Z9PE-D16 Serverboard RAM: Kingston KVR16R11D4K4/64 64GB (16GB x4) DDR3 1600Mhz ECC Registered Memory RAM DIMM I am looking at replacing this system with an equivalent. I'm looking at getting a system from Scan.com I am going with the Custom PC Build "3XS Custom Xeon Scalable" Processor: ??? Motherboard: ASUS WS C621E SAGE RAM: 12 x 16GB Samsung M393A2K40CB2-CTD DDR4 Server RAM (192GB RAM) I am wondering which of these Intel Xeon processors (x2) will give me the equivalent or hopefully slightly better performance than my current system. 2x Intel Xeon Silver 4208, S 3647, Cascade Lake-SP, 8 Core, 16 Threads, 2.1GHz, 3.2GHz Turbo, 11MB Cache, 85W, Retail [£792.91] 2x Intel Xeon Silver 4210, S 3647, Cascade Lake-SP, 10 Core, 20 Threads, 2.2GHz, 3.2GHz Turbo, 13.75MB Cache, 85W, Retail [£961.20] 2x Intel Xeon Silver 4214, S 3647, Cascade Lake-SP, 12 Core, 24 Threads, 2.2GHz, 3.2GHz Turbo, 16.5MB Cache, 85W, Retail [£1,306.34] 2x Intel Xeon Silver 4216, S 3647, Cascade Lake-SP, 16 Core, 32 Threads, 2.1GHz, 3.2GHz Turbo, 22MB Cache, 100W, Retail [£1,679.98] 2x Intel Xeon Gold 5218, S 3647, Cascade Lake-SP, 16 Core, 32 Threads, 2.3GHz, 3.9GHz Turbo, 22MB Cache, 125W, Retail [£2,370.98] Thank you so much in advanced.
  9. I used ATTO and the read speeds went beyond the specs! Reads of up to 1600MB's per second
  10. just watched Linus' video on the revodrive, its already setup at raid 0 as default.
  11. I havent set up raid zero, im scared if i change from RAID its going to mess up all my other SSD's/HDD's
