I honestly can't think what you could possible need that kind of storage for, because basically anything that needs that fast, you load it (& run it in memory - which is still much faster than any NVME), Anything lower and u cache into NVME and then tier the storage like any other sane person based on usage.

I'm so jealous of someone getting to use this kind of stuff. Where I work we have tons of very expensive servers and network devices, but I don't really get to mess around with it too much. I just fiddle with my server at home on a dell workstation.

I love how giddy they both are the whole time!

Well if an average gaming computer has or had 1 GBit at max speed, which barely ever gets fully utilized, then his server rack had a capacity of 12 800 GBit networking. - That means it could handle almost 13 thousand gaming computers at once, all at max speed which they ever can utilize. If you drop this value down to lets say FullHD (1080p) content streaming which is something like 3MBit per computer / client. That'll make it capable of serving approximately 4 MILLION 267 THOUSAND customers at once! (Tho can the rest of that server handle that many clients?) Almost 4,3 Million computers running FullHD video at once? Is this crazy enough? Just one server can serve almost every citizen in my country at the same time, streaming some 1080p content.

i once had a job to set up a server for a highschool, the cable management was a huge pain, so good luck with that

I work for Supermicro (although I am not replying as a company representative) and this makes me really proud! Thanks for a great video!

It's actually one of the reasons why I don't watch his videos much anymore. He always handles very expensive hardware extremely carelessly for no reason whatsoever. He clearly isn't even doing it for views or anything, he just does it instinctively. He may take a multi-thousand-dollar heavy piece of hardware and flail it around with one hand like it were a coctail shaker (heck, even cocktail shakers are handled more carefully because they are usually shaken with both hands, not just one). This video is no exception (eg. he does that at 8:55). And, of course, every time he unboxes some really expensive server hardware, instead of doing it safely on a table in a clean environment, he insists in doing it in some dirty storeroom, on the floor, placing it precariously on some cardboard box. I'm surprised he doesn't do the unboxings on a piece of plywood propped up onto some rickety garden chairs... on the roof during a windstorm.

I recognize that Mellanox gear. It's been a few years since I was using this stuff. I didn't know that Nvidia had acquired them. The switch Linus pulled out of the box I'm pretty sure can run various stacks, infiniband, RoCE, etc.

The Austin joke got me. This tech is beastly!
