Is that the 550EPS12V? Or just the regular 550?
It's the EPS 12V. Tyan's website is *very* clear about which PSU is required.
Isn't that an ATX case, and _not_ an EATX/SSI EEB case? There are (not including newer BTX, or older formats): FlexATX: 9.0" x 7.5" MicroATX: 9.6" x 9.6" ATX: 12.0" x 9.6" Ext ATX: 12.0" x 13.0" SSI EEB: 12.0" x 13.0" + additional height/spacing/thermal
Its pretty clear that it's an EATX case. My bad. Do you have an SSI EEB case you like?
Turn off PowerNOW in the BIOS. It's what's slowing down your CPUs. Everything I've read says do _not_ use it on a server.
I'll go back and look, but I didn't see any entry specifically for PowerNow. Plus as I said, installing kernel 2.6.12.3 fixed the errors.
Or consider RAID-10. Send some benchmarks of that. ;-> Make sure you have the latest 3Ware driver and firmware for the 9500S series. Also consider the "tweaks" on 3Ware's site.
Will do. I'll run the benchmarks tonight.
