And I installed Linux. And it’s awesome.

EDIT: yes, the GPU was a bit tilted. Fixed it now!

            I’ve got a GSA gifted to me by a friend, and he filled it to max with RAM beforehand, and flashed the BIOS with regular… Dell? BIOS?

            It’s The Cheat from Homestar that I had to get a buncha SAS drives for. I didn’t know they were a thing.

            It’s unfathomably gigantic and heavy, but I guess it has a couple processors and a ton of RAM!

            (Also love your handle)

            Edit: oh shit it’s also got two PSUs for whatever raisin hahaha

        Noted! I haven’t got it set up yet. I have all the hard drives and stuff, but I haven’t been motivated lately. :c

        Plus, once I have UNRAID going, ideally it will almost never need to boot!

          I personally would not take it out, “unused” RAM will be used by the OS as e.g. disk cache, or you could have a fairly large ramdisk.

            I see! I’m very extremely new to this! Insofar I’ve only got some RPi machines set up, I don’t yet know anything about UNRAID or big servers.
