Right ESM works with Left ESM plugged out.
But the opposite doesn't apply, Left ESM doesn't work without right ESM.
It doesn't detect any drives with Left ESM alone.
I thought they're supposed to be redundant?
Tried switching cable and it was ok so it's not cabling issue.
SATA drives are not dual ported. So they only show up on one controller.
my new drive has shorter length than the older ones.. no wonder it didn't detect it cause it's not even plugged in!
never new they had different size though..
Kudos to rahvin9999 for helping me tracking the cause.
omg really so simple ?
Just tried another 10tb from hgst and it had the same short length.. guess newer hdds are shorter now..
Btw.. has anyone measured using wattmeter how many watt does this thing need at full or at least half full drives?
Im building a custom ups and i'd like to buy the accu according the watt needed.
Edit : Hmm mine runs at 240-250 Watt at 220v, at 13 drives..
If the JBOD is conneted to a HBA/SAS controller (LSI3008) on startup, the fans will stay at 100% RPM. Does anyone know of a work around aside from unplugging the HBA ahead of booting the JBOD?
Any more dealson this around in europe?
So as some may have seen I had mentioned in another thread that I had found some new old stock on those.
Seller had a total 4 complete + 1 partial available. The 4 complete systems are gone (2 hopefully @Emanuele who had voiced interest just recently, 2 to me) but a partial one still would be available.
I am not affiliated with the seller, its an established company in Germany.
I will provide the sellers email address on request so not going to be involved in this at all.
If someone is not going to fully populate the storage (i.e. ssd jbod + some HDDs) this is a great price.
Does anyone know where to find host to storage cable - mini SAS HD (SFF-8644) to QSFP+ (SFF-8436), at a reasonable price?
Isn't 1 meter too short, counting the cable management arm? If I can ask, which configuration will you be running on those storage?
Have you already received/tested the cables?
As I said I am getting the ones from the seller (2m). On the link other lengths are available too, so just pick what oyu need.
But my fault, too slow moving with the payment.
do you have link for this new offer of jbod unit? or the name of seller on ebay?
If it was an Ebay auction I would have included a link I'll pm you the seller's email address.
If any of the others I sent it to bought it it would be great if he/she could update this thread so that we know its gone.
