I had this server for a couple of months now, been getting the parts.
My current file server is a Super Micro as well but it is running Linux. I am thinking of running FreeNAS on this hardware.
Yesterday I was able to purchase the hard drives for this server
Four 4TB 7200RPM drives.
When I purchased these yesterday there were a lot of them. But when I checked again today, about 28 hours later, they were all sold out. Glad I got them.
So today, I just purchased a pair of USB flash drives which will be mirrored and used for boot. Weird that you can mirror USB drives, but the FreeNAS forums said you can do it.
This server will also sport a 6TB scratch/workspace drive that will not be backed up.
I will post these pictures up at my new tech blog https://my.apolonio.tech
More tech focused, work out and family stuff, not so much.
Speaking of workout, did a three plus today
Still bad, but better than last week.
Prior to the “run” I was 282.6 the official weight is below, which I did beat afterwards by using the bathroom at 280.6. Sooo close.
But here is the official
Weight: 281.0
