Hi

This was the newest Post about the Microserver here.

I need some kind of Backup Server. I run currently a 2 CPU Machine who run quite in Idle. Just some W7 Machines on my ESXi who do some basic Jobs like TV Recording.

 

Now I need an dedicated Server for Storage. I have an "old" Raid Controller former LSI from my Pc with 4 1TB HW Encrypt (!) HDD.

The plan would be put an ESXi onto the Home Server on on that put some Open Cloud Storage onto.

Since 16Gb Kingston Ram are so cheap (~73€ excl) I would buy just one Bar at first.

 

I looking for the P04923-421:
P04923-421HPE MicroSvr Gen10 X3421 EU/UK Svr/TV ~400€ excl

745823-B21HPE TPM Module 2.0 Kit ~25€ excl

KTH-PL424E/16GKINGSTON HP 16GB DDR4 2400MHz ECC Module 73€ excl

 

Raid -> Home

4x HDD .> Home

ESXi -> Free

 

How about the Deal?

I know stupid question but how powerfull are the CPU?

I have an N36L (the first Homeserver) and the CPU laggs a lot.

My Laptop run an i7 6600U and my Desktop this i5: https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/88189/intel-core-i5-6600t-processor-6m-cache-up-to-3-50-ghz.html

So I have no idea how to compare the CPU with that I have home and who I know what run and what not.

So I saw the Server have just an PCI-E 8x Slot so that mean I cant put a Graca Into.

Oke I dont need any.

 

Who I cant find any Info does the Server have an Remote Access like the old N36L? I needed a Card for but now I cant find any Infos about that stuff.

So does anyone here have a Micro Server running?

Thanks!

Are there no specs of the machine to be found anywhere? Not even manufacturer's website?

Can I cheat and put 2x SSD in one 3,5 Zoll Slot?

So 1x Power -> 2x dedicated Data Ports = 1x HDD Power Port Required and when I put in the Server a Raid Card with 8x Port in it the can run 8 Individual SSD?

 

EDIT1: OMG a 4x SSD in 1!
