 MSGID: 1:229/426 40BDE991 REPLY: 1:154/10 69093dbe On 03 Nov 25 17:38:02, Nick Boel said the following to Mark Hofmann: NB> I've been poking around Ebay and Amazon looking for something older/renewed NB> like a Dell 730xd or an HP DL380 (2U) that wouldn't break the bank, and jus NB> so happens the cost goes up quite a bit when storage is included in them. ; I had HP DL360's and 380's and although they're nice... they need HP drives. Non-HP drives appear to be missing a temperature sensor which causes the backplane controller to run the fans at full blast... jet-engine full blast. Ended up getting rid of them and going with two Dell R510's for storage, 24 hard drives total, and a R610 for Vmware EXSI.... the hard drives are a mix of different brands and the controller doesn't complain at all.
