I love your server reviews, they're very easy to follow, and kept varied with the B-roll. I love sth as well, but I find him hard to pay attention to sometimes.

[@rudysal1429]

Wendell, could you cover a more general linux home server setup and general topics to learn from making a home lab. I took your course on udemy but it felt like there were some jumps between steps. I've been learning to use linux but there are still some difficult projects to learn. Finished putting together a home nas but still a lot of figuring out software side. ZFS, VMs, other applications to run. Trying to learn enough to get an entry level position, maybe learn enough to become a low level admin.

[@DoozyBytes]

My whole company’s infra costs less than this one server...

[@TheOscylO]

I picked Z10 version of this chassis after one of Level1 videos and I love it. Use it with 4 x 2080Ti and AMD 7402P with 256GB of RAM and 10TB of NVME storage in total. It's a beast. Thanks Wendell :)

[@angelinocottoestrada5676]

Where can I buy on ?

[@TheOscylO]

@@angelinocottoestrada5676 I've got one from my local supplier that had a connection to US distributor which have finally delivered. None where available in Europe to my knowledge.

EPYC ENGAGEMENT

[@jefferywdonald]

The back is almost always more interesting than the front Wendell >.< Lulz

[@nghtcaptn9461]

My eyes rolled back in my head when you said epyc and $40k worth of Tesla gpu’s.

[@tommihommi1]

Those PSUs are 12V only, right? That's why they can be so tiny

[@DespoBryant]

Boiler Snake needs merch!

[@VisualBasic6]

I..
I don't know what to comment because this is so cool.

[@xanthirus]

Now this, this is epyc

[@chocolatebrisket3772]

0:33 This explains how Wendell knew what a PAWG was 🤣

[@LoveToMix]

I just got approval for some server replacements... We use Dell and this time I got an epic, I wondered why the price was so good and now I know it's due to single socket, but 24 core is still better that the dual 6 cores I had before!

[@DrewMiller4_18_5_23]

Hey Wendell, did you happen to glance at what brand redrivers were in this server?

[@MrKingkamon]

Tech question, looking for a reliable EPYC server for a bare metal XDR project. Open to any suggestions more threads the better but everyone in our business hates Dell and uses HPE but looking for options. Thanks in advance

[@BOTLT1]

So small powersupply nice

[@andljoy]

You could do some serious fun things with VMWare Horizon and a stack of GPUs in that. 1 Server 8 editors anyone? Just need to find a nice thin client that supports BLAST

[@mikefarino4368]

Not sure if you'll see this, but I've been considering purchasing the HPE DL385 Gen 10 (non plus) with Epyc Rome installed, do you have any experience with HPE and their EPYC platforms? I can't seem to find any reviews of the server online.

[@currentlykent4593]

Banana 🍌

[@AdmV0rl0n]

Holy moly - I bet those PSUs run hot. Jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeez...

[@cd5927]

Most PSUs like that run with 4k or 5k RPM fans to keep up with the heat though. They sound like an angry F-16

[@stoned887]

Notice how expited Wendell is about this by how fast he talks :D

[@Slash27015]

*me:* looks at my hp proliant g6's
*proliant g6's:* don't even think about it
*me:* sighh fiiine

[@dermothoyne2393]

One U N I T of a pkg.

[@denvera1g1]

Are those PSUs GaN based?

[@michaelnichelson3423]

Go get 4x Radeon Pro Duos and rock 8 gamers in 2U. And do it on full open source with SR-IOV.

[@kc0isw]

Gpu mining time

[@stranger7968]

New Minecraft server hehe ?

[@jakobfindlay4136]

The thumbnail looks like your holding a banana

[@rajilsaraswat9763]

Supermicro is good with IPMI too.

[@nos676]

This server cost 40K.
you can do a cluster with 3
I may do a video on that later.
JFK I could buy a piece of land to build a house on for that much. that's USD$120K/ AUD$154K!!

[@itsdeonlol]

That is a tiny PSU!

[@thepranjaljain]
