Good! What CPUs do you have in the R720 today? 1 or 2 CPUs? Do you want the new ones to be faster or just capable of running more VMs? I have 2 x E5-2609 CPUs in each server. I would like faster, but more VMs would be the priority. The E5-2609 CPUs are at the low end of what was available at the time so no problem there. Actually, are you looking to keep the old servers around for testing and such? In that case you could just drop in refurbished CPUs that are faster and/or has more cores for very little money. If the server can take E5-2600 V2 you can get up to 12 core CPUs. yeah, but Windows licensing is an issue, assuming multiple CPUs... for a test server, not likely worth going over the 16 cores. Not to mention the test server might require licensing (if needed beyond the 90 day test period for something). Two 8-cores would be an option. For instance two E5-2690. They are 2.9 GHz base frequency and have 8 cores. About $100 each when buying refurbished. About 50% faster per core (2609 have no turbo) and about 3 times faster multicore performance. Has more cache and faster memory transfer speed. Was a very high end CPU at the time. Was listed at $2000 while the E5-2609 was $300. The fastest 8-core E5-2600 V2 CPU is the E5-2667 V2. 8 cores and base frequency of 3.3 GHz. It will likely also be an option for the R720XD. V2 uses 22nm technology so uses less power with the same clock speed and can fit more cores or run higher frequencies.

I have a couple Udemy courses on it. Something I didn't see in this article was that Cloud Shell has Terraform built in... so you really don't even need to install it. I try to keep things serverless and source controlled, so I wouldn't want to install Terraform. As long as it uses the latest version of terraform. There are many differences between current and last release. Cool. Yeah 11 vs 12 are much different. Alot of things have to be redone

      @wrx7m said in Video Conferencing Hardware - Suggestions?: @scottalanmiller said in Video Conferencing Hardware - Suggestions?: I'm doing video conferencing stuff this week, too! What are you deploying? I am leaning toward the higher end logitech stuff to integrate with SFB/Teams and Slack. If I do that, I will most likely pull the trigger on the Barco CSE-200+ for wireless presentation- something we haven't had before. We have just had a direct HDMI cable to a large monitor. Cheap Logitech right now to get started. We are talking to Yealink to find out about their high end stuff. But likely we are going to go with just Logitech gear and maybe soft phones or something like that.

      @brianwinkelmann said in Troubleshooting Common Hardware Problems - CompTIA A+ 220-1001 Prof Messer: @scottalanmiller but that was the red light that indicates that the CPU is not working. I suspect that there is a speaker there, too. Just no beep codes from that machine. Look up the specific motherboard to see if it has beep codes.

      @Pete-S said in PFsense hardware ?: Yes, it makes sense. Ubiquity and pfsense are not really the same thing though. Ubiquity is a router like any consumer Asus or whatever but with a much better OS. Pfsense is a freebsd computer with a web gui. They are good for slightly different things. You could say the same thing about Cisco or whatever. All router hardware below five figures is kind of the same. Ubiquiti is definitely built better than any consumer gear I've seen, but the basics are the same. I've seen pfSense on the same kind of hardware. EdgeOS is Vyatta based, though. Purpose built to be a router. pfSense is putting a router on top of something desired for general use. I've never seen a pfSense setup that I'd consider ready for production use. Most I've seen are worse than consumer gear because it's either unsupported consumer gear rebranded, or just old PCs without maintenance.
