First of all, the magnitude of impact of the VGA is probably enough on its own to make you abandon this idea in a couple of minute

Can you expand on this? I've not come across this report before.

Very easy! 

Fine tune everything and after you have finished by being able to fully control remotely, take off the vga adapter or alternatively, switch it off through the bios or jumpers. You can't go backwards. It is beyond logic to upgrade all your stuff and leave vga working! 

Got it, I'll try that in my upcoming build.

Has anyone used this Startech fiber nic successfully with either audiolinux or gentooplayer in their build?

trouble finding industrial RAM

AQD-D4U8GR26-SE, from Advantech. This is working well with a xeon silver 4210 cpu in a supermicro motherboard.

Tomorrow is the big day. 2008 vs ubiquity er x sfp! 

Hi Peter,  did you ever make this comparison? If so, did you try 2 units of the ER X SFP?

I love the balls in the groove of the bamboo cutting blocks!
 

I am also about to foray into improved vibration isolation

I must say that it has been such a joy to be part of this group.  I love seeing everyone working on their projects from diy cables to ramrooting to stacking 6 ethernet switches to woodworking with mohagony.  This forum has been a refuge and distraction in trying times. 

 

Thanks to all kin here

Am waiting for my 2008 to arrive as well! What DC Voltage does it take? I might get another dual rail ciunas ISO-PS to power them

Just received mine. 12v.

Thank you! Any idea if 3A will be sufficient?

Yes, 3 amps is sufficient for the gs2008.  It uses a max 10.6 watts, per the specs. I'm waiting on a Y splitter cable to see if I can power two switches with one rail of a keces p3.

Hi!
What do You think about this model (from part of SQ):

Buffalo BS-GS2008 (I no need more than 8 outputs)

Actually tried to looking for order, but everywhere is “no longer available”...

Thanks

I had a nice uptick in sound using two of these in series powered by keces p3. Seems that downside is less space in the  chassis for clock mod. Also no sfp.
