mercutio: if you care about quiet, newer stuff is generalyl getting better and better, and that system is a little older and has the same (affordable) 64gb limit as new skylake cheap desktops
mnathani: just picked up the workstation, seems pretty quiet
now what should I install first : Proxmox, Windows 8/10, Ubuntu 15.10, something else?
mercutio: arch linux
what kind of disks are you using?
how much ram did you get?
mnathani: 64gb ram
mercutio: how cheap?
mnathani: 2disks - 3tb and 2tb
dont know if it was cheap
$750 usd
hex core xeon
not sure the model
sorry $750 CAD
mercutio: maybe e5-2620
mnathani: 842.81 New Zealand Dollar
mercutio: my server was like $200 NZD
but then i paid some extra for hard-disks, nvme ssd, memory, and sas controller
still less than you paid :)
mnathani: lol
Canada is expensive
cos our dollar is so weak
mercutio: so is here normally
i brought hard-disks locally, scored some 450gb 15k sas disks cheap
but everything else other than the server i got from overseas :)
mnathani: I am an impulsiver buyer
dont like waiting for things to ship and so on
mercutio: i got more nvme ssd overnight
i was surprised ;)
mnathani: amazon?
mercutio: nah, ramcity
amazon have terribly slow shipping
well i mean to here. i think they're pretty quick if you buy stuff from close distribution places in the US and use the expensive shipping
but i find orders often take over a day to be sent
mnathani: Xeon E5-2630L 2.0 Ghz 6-core
still faster than my 5 year old desktop i7 but not by much
