Server RACK from powered OFF to power ON, so cover your ears if they're sensitive.

[@DanielTekmyster]

Clean, and professional looking; I look forward to seeing you build on that VMware cluster!

[@woswasdenni1914]

lol not even close

[@DanielTekmyster]

@@woswasdenni1914 let me see your rack….oh, that’s right, you don’t have one!

[@ITSystemsAdmin]

Thanks, more to come!

[@ITSystemsAdmin]

To perform a power consumption test, I need to measure the voltage and current drawn by the rack equipment using a dedicated power meter, then calculate the power consumption by multiplying the voltage by the current (Power = Voltage x Current) - just determining how much electricity the rack uses in watts.

[@AlexanderBukh]

sweet stack, we did also use firebox firewall at work 10 years ago

[@ewenchan1239]

It's nowhere NEAR as loud as the old Sun SunFire systems. THOSE things were LOUD.

Rack equipment manufacturers should design their chassis so that adjacent units can replace pairs of small fans with larger, quieter, and more efficient fans that span the units.

[@woswasdenni1914]

not howe it works, you would need insane static pressure. server chassis are designed in the way that their chassifans cools it all. CPU, PCIE, disks. so even when one fails the unit still keeps running. if you want silent fans you need bigger chassis, that speaks against space optimisation as everz inch in a datacenter costs a ton of money because of the nessesary infrastructure. density is a key factor

[@ITSystemsAdmin]

@@woswasdenni1914 Great comment! Thanks.

[@icubeTechtips]

and now show what the power consumption is at startup and then when working under full load

[@ITSystemsAdmin]

I will do!

@@ITSystemsAdmin ok

[@gabrielporto.mikrotik]

What is the equipment below the Synology? Looks like some sort of power supply to me.

[@ITSystemsAdmin]

This is a Cisco Nexus 48-Port 10GbE SFP+ & 6-40G QSFP Network Switch

[@gabrielporto.mikrotik]

@ Oh! Great. Thanks for the answer. Keep up the good work. 🙏🏼

[@davidgrisez]

Is this a computer server or is it the sound of a jet airplane taking off. It sounds like the person starting up this equipment needs to be wearing hearing protection.

[@ITSystemsAdmin]

Yeah, so loud when starting up but then quiet down after a while, simply because the fans are running at full speed during the initial power-on sequence to quickly check their functionality and cool down the system, then automatically adjust to a lower speed once the rack got a stable temperature. Thanks.

[@jonathanbuzzard1376]

Hearing protection is basically mandatory in a datacenter

[@ITSystemsAdmin]

That's correct. Hearing protection devices (HPDs) are wearable devices that reduce the amount of sound that reaches your ears within large datacenters with network switches, routers and air conditioning equipment.

👍✨🌟 great 🌟✨

[@ITSystemsAdmin]

Many thanks

[@garbarmihail]

Nice sound

[@ITSystemsAdmin]

Thanks for listening

[@mattneed111]

You dont wanna hear my stack O.O I have a Cisco 5108 UCS Chassis with fabric interconnects and nexus switches XD

[@ITSystemsAdmin]

Yeah! The Cisco UCS Chassis are very loud, I know.

[@mattneed111]

@ITSystemsAdmin I'm gonna be honest the chassis is the least of the problem after boot I can't hear it over the FI and Nexus

[@ITSystemsAdmin]

For me, Nexus is the loudest but the most powerful switch ever.

Can this machine run Minecraft 60fps with 720p resolution 😂

[@ITSystemsAdmin]

Yes, the Minecraft *should* work as long as you use vSphere ESXi 8 or Horizon 8 for VDI and above. You can present your host's graphic card GPUs to Virtual Machine (VM) by using Pass-Through or using new ex: NVIDIA vGPU, AMD vGPU or any other special graphic cards with guidelines.
