ReCoN Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 I cant find the Sumpermicro X9SCM-F-O availible in the UK, I have also tried the X9SCL-F-O. Would the X9SCA-F be suitible? if not is there something else similar that is readily availible in the uk? Quote Link to comment
WeeboTech Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 Should be fine. Just for reference a PCIe X4 is capable of 1000MB/s in one direction. By today's drive standards of 120-130MB/s on the outer tracks, an X4 slot can support 8 drives easily. http://www.directron.com/expressguide.html Quote Link to comment
ReCoN Posted December 30, 2011 Author Share Posted December 30, 2011 Thank you, that was the issue I was concerned with. I did run a comparison on the supermicro site between the 2, I just wanted to check here. Quote Link to comment
c234rmf Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 MBD-X9SCL+-F is another option. It only has 3 slots also but it has 2x "standar" intel ethernet cards Quote Link to comment
