    linksys lgs552 cpu?

    I'm looking for a 48 port gb switch with 10g uplink, and linksys lgs552 seems to be the one with reasonable price in my country, there's one concern though, i cannot find any information about its cpu specs, i saw a review dissecting it and it says it's using marvell board but it doesn't say...

    Maximum # harddisk a motherboard can handle with 2 SAS expanders

    The SAS card is paired with SAS expanders and SFF8087 to sata cables.. I tested it earlier with 1 SATA HDD and it works.. Hmm i think i can bump the memory up to 32 GB.. thats the max... Will that be enough? I wanted to consider ECC ram.. but that requires me to change almost the entire...

    Maximum # harddisk a motherboard can handle with 2 SAS expanders

    I'm new to this JBOD thing so bear with me.. Planning to build gigantic Media server running Ubuntu. I just bought 1 HP SAS expander and an IBM M1015 SAS Card which has 2 SFF8087 ports, meaning it can hold up to 2 SAS expanders... I've measured the mobo and it looks like 2 SAS expander could...

    Teaming on Quad NIC + win server 2012 + unmanaged server

    Then i guess this would be better ? Server quad nic 》8p managed switch 》 16x2 unmanaged switches 》 30 clients Would the clients still get the benefit from teaming? 52p managed switch is rare in my country and most likely i have to import it... and thats not a good idea in the long term for...

    Teaming on Quad NIC + win server 2012 + unmanaged server

    Hi, we have a winserver 2012 with intel quad nic which is used as a ccboot server (pxeboot) to 30 clients, due to the switch rarity in my country, we prefer to use nonmanaged switch.. My question is, if we team a quad nic, then do we need 4 nonmanaged switches to get the benefit for clients...
