    Thanks for the video, it is way more detailed that most other reviews I've seen. Can I ask you what model of 10Gbps SFP+ (to rj45) you used ? I'm trying to find one compatible so better ask you that browsing 100 forums (wich I already did without any answers). King regards

    I'm using Antaira SFP-C (www.antaira.com/products/gigabit-modules/SFP-C) but I'm sure Unifi SFP to RJ45 adapter (store.ui.com/us/en/collections/unifi-accessory-tech-cable-sfp/products/rj45-to-sfp-module) should work as well.

    HTTP.... ok it's sketchier they use google cloud to host all the OS, but theyre boards have been better than Rpi since the beginning because woah emmc on everybody for so long, woah nvme allowed for a while, diversity of CPU''s. The Orange Pi Zero 3 4GB vs Rasp Pi 4 - 4GB, Zero 3 wins. And why are you using Armbian? It sounds like you made life so much harder for yourself. iirc you don't have a ventoy USB eh

    Bruh it's so easy to install steam, you can do it on a phone. Also Joshua-Riek ubuntu, and James Chambers installing steam on orange pi 5 - it's the same for all RK3588. I never use forums or wiki's that's unreliable as hell, if Rpi taught you to do that, that's not shocking.

    oh and Rock 5 ITX has 4 SATA, LPDDR5 and the orange pi 5 pro has LPDDR5 but its junk, uses the RK3588s when the RK3588 or just adding LPDDR5 to the plus instead would be WAY better.

    Also get a USB Hub for the Opi5 (I was using a 4 USB Hub velcroed to the side, SSD USB and display coming out of type C with a Type C splitter. Raspberry is overpriced as hell. the octa-core has the same cores as a Rpi 5 and an Rpi 4, and then it's got the NPU, and if someone would make a vulkan driver for linux it would just be playing 5 year old pc games. I had it playing lot's of steam games FOR LINUX, which theres not enough. Winlator is my hope.

    I have an Orange Pi 5 plus 16gig now, max emmc it's fine. I have 2 Broken Orange Pi 5 nvme and I'm quite p**sed cause I contacted Orange Pi through email, all three lines on aliexpress, facebook even. EVERYTIME told NO WARRANTY, then AFTER 1 YEAR of having the, told there's a warranty, so I followed that up with PLEASE FIX my Zero 2W, and Zero 3 then since I got them far more recently. They stopped replying. In all honesty can someone direct me to somewhere to buy the 'special'QSPI'flash they are using, because it's non standard. It shorted? I guess. I had bought the 8GB first, then a 16GB, I mounted the 16 with the same ice tower cooler that he has, was using it one day, all fine. shut it down, unplugged it, put it in a box, and tucked it away. Next time going to use, no LED, no launch, nothing. Power is going from USB C to usb ports, and the GPIO, yet no led, no boot logic, and then I was trying to mount a SugarPi battery to the 8 down the road, negligence allowed me to put 5v into whatever pins are right across from the top outter pin, or the one beneath it, and shorted out, now it behaves identical to the 16 Gig. If anybody can help me figure out how to fix this I would S*** your ****. JK. FR though, I am so.... just... I don't have tons of cash to throw on these boards, to lose 340$ CAD (one had Customs charges) I want it fixed pretty bad. I would love to add 2 expensive boards back to my collection. Now I refuse to use a board without a case, and good idea of it's surroundings and incase the pins shorted. This is obvious not my first Orange pi that broke, I had an Orange Pi 1 that well honestly likely my fault so moving on, the Zero 2W 3 ceramic transistors..? whatever fell off. So just using board, its kinda crap but cheap excited, cheap becomes clear, falls off and now im practicing soldering for small things to practice removing what looks lke the right things from the one onto the zero 2W. The Zero 3 (they're the same but the 3 is legitimately more stable) the SD port just FELL OFF. right now, I;ve got 2 more Zero 3's a 3B, and a 5 plus, other than those, 4 boards are sitting here looking extremely fixable, but I need more info, but orange pi will not give me the info on the QSPI or where to buy, they refuse to sell me it. Switching to radxa, going to be buying a mix of 5B, 5ITX, 3B, 5C, 5C lite for TOPs, Zero 2 Pro for TOPs, and form factor, Zero 3W maybe, there's possibly an 8GB ram Z2Pro from radxa so I'm gonna prefer that, I was buying Libre Alta's, but they got lippy with me when I had to refuse a delivery because the customs officials doubled the cost. I'd have spent 50% on delivery,not hardware. Not interested in that, if I had it my way - money wise - I'd have a couple CM3588's NAS carriers tbh. and when the Orange Pi 5 plus wasn't THREE HUNDRED DOLLARS for a 32GB I would've bought 5 to cluster. 3 full size HDMI, gen 3 nvme, 2x usb 3, mipi dsi, usb c to hdmi out, one of the 3 fulls are capture in, and. It's great too with the dual RJ45's, I'd imagine grabbing a connector cable making a cluster should be just as easy as the mixtile blade3. EITHER WAY, seeing Orange Pi go from unique boards, and interestng qualities to identical form factor as Rpi makes me hate them, I'm happy they made 3 versions of Orange pi OS, OpiOS Droid is actually really nice. But they dont update anything, android for the zero 2W is still the broken 1.0 version is launched with, still radxa is on aliexpress now, so I can avoid arace.tech cause my god they suck, 5 months later I got my Milk V Duo's and expansions, by then I had lost interested, and just wanted a refund. please help fix the Opi5 nvme models. The QSPI gets hot really fast so must be messed up

    I ordered an X10SRH-CF off of ebay for a really good price (mobo+CPU combo for $50) because I had ram sitting around I could use for it. Seller ended up sending me an X11SSH-F by mistake and long story short I ended up with both boards+CPU for $50. Now I just need to figure out what to use the X11 for but I'm sure I can figure something out. I've worked with SM boards for years, some of them have had quirks (usually fixed with bios update) and X99 is kind of getting old depending on what you want to do exactly (and needing Java for older boards IPMI is a pain) but I'd take a second hand SM board over those cludged together boards any day, glad you finally gave a SM board a try. I know power is much more of an issue in Europe for instance though and the power draw for that system would probably make hardware like that a no go for a lot of people, that said there's nothing wrong with using those Chinese boards (assuming they work properly and are reliable) given some nice QOL features like NVME slots and what not and the fact that the hardware isn't becoming ewaste is probably a good thing. That board will do 10 SATA with a breakout cable for the 's-sata' port, don't know if that board is as finicky as some other SM boards about cables but the SM part (CBL-0097L-03) is fairly cheap.

    Congratulations on the board. SM boards are great. Two tips: You can generate a OOB license based on the BMCs MAC address. Its nice to be able to flash BIOS from the BMC. You can google the script. Second, if you want to boot of NVME there are some BIOS modifications for injecting NVME support DXEs. I did it on my X10DRU-i its really simple. Enchances the already good value on these boards.

  • @wannabesq
    @wannabesq4 күн бұрын

    There's some other versions of that board from Supermicro that have 3 x16 slots and 3 x8 slots named X10DRi-T. Based on the model number (it has a T at the end) think the board has built in 10Gb ports. There's even a smaller version that fits in an ATX form factor too, the X10DRL-i (but that one only has the 1 x16 slot and no built in 10Gb. IMO the only downside of these boards is I couldn't get mine to boot to NVME drives in PCI riser cards, but I think you can get a modified BIOS that allows NVME boot.

    Just so you know the supermicro X10 series of boards support the firmware microcode edit trick to allow v3 Xeons to run with no turbo limits. I used an X10Dri board with a pair E5-2696 v3 Xeons running all core 4GHz turbo for a long while. The firmware is easy to edit (search Miyconst) and unlocks all v3 xeons, sadly does not work on v4 CPUs, but a turbo-unlocked E5-2696 v3 beats a E5-2699 v4 in all benchmarks I tried.

    How are you getting video without a GPU? Xeon doesn't have an iGPU. Is there a VGA chip on the motherboard? This looks like a very interesting motherboard with a lot of connectivity. For the price, I'm considering buying one. My only reservation is that I will be wasting my time chasing bugs on an unstable, unbranded, Chinese piece of junk when I could just pay a little more and get a new AMD B550 motherboard, 5500 CPU, and i/o adapters. I've subbed and watched both of your videos on this mobo. Could you do another one where you test the throughput on all of the rear i/o and a long term stability test? Essentially I'm asking you to make a video where you try to kill this motherboard.
