Anyone heard of "Supermicro" (highend server) - GoFuckYourself.com

xlogger · 02-15-2006, 12:42 PM

'Supermicro' is the server im getting later today. Most people in the US dont even know what it is (i didnt, lol).

http://www.supermicro.com/products/s...-6014P-32R.cfm <-- check it out, they are better than Xeons.

SinisterStudios · 02-15-2006, 12:54 PM

Umm supermicro is not really a high end server, and every host knows supermicro. Most use their servers to host on, i have a bunch but i prefer using ibm servers, less headaches

how can a xeon be better than a xeon?

DavidVH · 02-15-2006, 12:59 PM

I use a ton of Supermicro servers. It's not exactly high end but it is pretty reliable.

What are they, blades?

fuzebox · 02-15-2006, 01:26 PM

We bought a ton of Supermicros when I was a sysadmin, mostly because they were cheap.

justsexxx · 02-15-2006, 01:27 PM

They are nice, especially for the price. I still love Dell tho(and so does isprime)

xlogger · 02-15-2006, 01:30 PM

Man i though Supermicro was really good, guess not.

Need to cut down on the weed.

Moose · 02-15-2006, 01:35 PM

Dear Newbie,
Supermicro manufactures servers. Most every datacenter in the USA is filled with them. Yes they make servers with Xeon's in them too.

4Pics · 02-15-2006, 01:43 PM

I thought they just made motherboards that were over priced compared to Abit/Asus/Tyan/Gigabyte

They were supposed to be really good when we had p2/p3 servers.

Quagmire · 02-15-2006, 01:55 PM

Nothing high end about supermicros. They are what I direct clients to who are too cheap to spring for a low end Dell server. Of course saying that I have no complaints about their quality. Haven't had a problem with one.

xlogger · 02-15-2006, 01:58 PM

Xeon 64bit 3.0 GHz with 4Gb DDR Ram.
Hardware raid and 2x74Gb 10,000rpm raptor drives.

^ Im getting two of these now, forget Supermicro.

Supermicro... I will leave left unsaid... what i will say is duel opteron over duel xeon any day

Ycaza · 02-15-2006, 04:49 PM

I dig the super micros as good medium end server, reliable, good parts but not high end

asdfqwer · 02-20-2006, 01:09 PM
