The two-sided SSD layout always promises interesting speed, and when you have two DDR4 cache chips on board under the control of a 4-core controller, Silicon Motion SM2264, the result is high stability in mixed loads and excellent multithreading up to 128 threads. We have an NVME SSD Adata Legend 960 of M.2 2280 format with a volume of 1 TB, and this model is interesting because it has a two-way layout with two cache memory chips controlled by a top controller in its line, Silicon Motion ...

PDUs with remote disconnection of sockets and groups of sockets, which are often called switchable PDUs, provide remote control of sockets and groups of sockets, allowing operators to quickly overload hung devices, block their activation, turn off excess power at peak loads and balance the load between phases in 3-phase networks by monitoring and disconnecting sockets. PDU (Power Distribution Unit), they are also power distributors, or power distributors, sometimes socket blocks, but this is ...

Technologies are so advanced today that there are many tools for monitoring server racks and the entire computing infrastructure of a small enterprise. These systems also allow you to optimize energy use, manage backup power and control cooling. A server rack is a miniature ecosystem with its own climate, its own electrical part, as well as its own security and protection facilities. But how to ensure the proper functioning of the rack and early troubleshooting? The solution is monitoring ...

The power supply is a critical component of the server, on which not only the stability of operation depends, but also the operating costs. What types of server PSUs are used today and how to choose a power model. Server power supplies, which are used to provide power to server components, have various parameters, such as power, current, and voltage. Depending on the type of server enclosure and its capacity, power supplies are divided into different categories. Conventional ATX power ...

Prices for DDR4 today are not just at comfortable levels, but at such levels that all DIMM slots on the motherboard can be clogged with memory modules, as long as they are not empty. If you are not planning to upgrade the platform to AMD with DDR5 support in the near future, you can install the maximum amount of supported memory in your computer, overclock it to a substantial 3.6 GHz and, most likely, not worry about a lack of RAM in the coming years. Prices for DDR4 today are not just at ...

The largest vendor of server equipment, HPE, produces the Proliant RL300 Gen11 model based on Ampere Altra (Max) processors. These are 1-socket 1-unit servers, delivered both according to the traditional purchase model and according to a relatively new type of subscription sales (Server-as-a-service). The new machines are designed for Cloud environments, that is, for companies providing application hosting services using container and hardware virtualization, as well as for Web hosting and ...

What happens if you take two NVME disks: one faster, the other slower, and build a simple RAID from them? Will a faster SSD be able to pull off the speed of a slower one? We will check in working office loads. In general, if we look at hard drives from the point of view of performance, then everything is simple and clear, and even the slow "green" models at 5400 RPM do not differ much from the server ones at 10 and 15 thousand RPM, unless of course the manufacturer is clever with ...

A very interesting server with a price of $ 1M, created for SAP HANA and applications with high RAM consumption. Here, the processors are located one above the other, there are 3 TB of memory, 4 power supplies, monitoring with predictive analysis of breakdowns and 48 storage slots. Today we are testing a very special server from the family of vertically scalable x86 systems. The Lenovo SR860V2 quad-processor is designed to handle mission-critical workloads such as transactional and resident ...
