It lives!!! No #hardware issues detected… Yet… and yes, I intentionally chose to use a #Compaq #CRT & #Keyboard 😜

The only other thing I would like to get hold of, is another PCI-e riser card allowing for another 3 PCI-e lanes to be used for more activities 🤣

#Networking “HP NC364T PCI-e Quad Port Gigabit Adapter”

Sounds like a cool product name… #Installed ✅

A power boost to support the additional drives, memory and CPU Power. Up from a single 400W PSU to dual #750W PSU’s. Should be plenty and add redundancy.

Storage for the OS, #TrueNAS #SCALE maybe? 32GB micro-SD to full size SD adapter. Nice that’s it’s on board and I also have the option of using an internal USB port.

RAM Cache upgraded and still supports battery backup🔋 in the event of a power loss with a 650mAh

RAM sifted through, and I’ve got an exact number of matching DIMM’s just different brands so I’ve grouped them by channel.

3 DIMM’s per Channel, 3 Channels per CPU. Now populated with 18: 4GB 2Rx4 PC3-10600R totalling: 72GB of RAM. The CPU’s can handle up to 146GB each I believe.

Sorting through my collection of processors to find the best match.

Luck would have it that I have a matching pair of: #INTEL #XEON X5550’s @ 2.66GHz with 4 Cores / 8 Threads & 8MB cache.
