I’m not a lawyer, but if I wasn’t planning to do anything related to the other ‘dedsec’, I wouldn’t even consider what the owner of that dedsec would think.

Businesses have the same name ALL THE TIME.

Unless you’re trying to piggyback on or undermine that other dedsec, I, the non-lawyer, can’t imagine how they’d have any standing to raise a concern.

Whatever you’re doing must have led you to the dedsec name (I assume it’s a website for dog-eat-dog security), there’s just no way in my (non-lawyer) mind that EA or Ubisoft has any right to stop you from saving dogs from being eaten.

I (the non-lawyer) would 100% not pay a lawyer for their opinion on this.

Ah. Will trying to hit swap damage the drives? Or just won’t work?

Drives are hot-swappable with this HBA, right?

They are SAS drives, not sata. Mobo does have SATA, but not SAS.

I do!

Thanks for the link!

Welp. Seems I’m an idiot. I’m very much a Unix noob so assumed it was something that Unix I didn’t understand rather than check the physical card again.

I was definitely shipped an nvidia card, not the amd I bid on! So case opened with eBay!

Sorry for the dumb question. Thanks for the great help.

Stay tuned for my next dumb question. :)

How do you do this? Idk what to even google, exactly.

So in the end, the intel 1g NIC just worked, so I gave up for now on trying to get the 2.5g Broadcom working instead.

I might try to link aggregate later and use the 2.5g Broadcom and circle back on this… but we’ll see.

I also got the second GPU installed and it shows up, too. But it’s an Rx590 and is showing as an RTX2070… so I’ll be making another post shortly!

Thanks for all the input!

I have no experience with dmesg and also don’t know how to scroll the history since I’m not on a terminal app (since I can’t get the NIC up).

Anything here helpful?

Ohhh. In that last line. I wasn’t even looking at that, I assumed the block above that was setting up the primary NIC…

I’ll see if changing that interface name does it…

It’s late. I’ll have to pull the card and re run tomorrow. But here’s with the GPU in:

It’s an i7-14700 and an ASRock z690 extreme. I’m actually hoping to put a second GPU in the last PCIe slot so I can let proxmox use the iGPU, pass the 3060 into a Unix moonlight gaming VM, and pass an RX590 into a hackintosh VM.

ASRock Z90 Extreme.

Has 2 built in NICs. The intel 1g and the Broadcom 2.5g.

Trying to use the Broadcom here, though my Ethernet is only 1g house wide, so I could try the intel if that seems like it could help…

Ok. I’ll check it out.

Let’s say it is exhausted… what will get me more bandwidth? CPU or mobo…?

Only other pci-e card in at the moment is 16 line HBA seems to be basically 2 cards sandwiched on one board)…

This may also help, my HBA is there:

I’ve also had this idea in the back of my mind…. Curious what people suggest…

Or the Katie Couric!

This is in proxmox?

How can I tell if my mobo even supports it?

Ok. So they are different?

How do I tell which motherboards support IOMMU?

I can’t find it as a filter or search option on any websites…?

Well, that’s at least part of my problem. I have no idea what it would be called so it’s hard to google. I guess the underlying technology is all ‘IOMMU’, but each motherboard manufacture and Intel and AMD all have other names for it…

I’m trying to pass an HBA through to a VM for a NAS.

Look. I don’t support vaporizing Gazans and I also feel rather impotent to do anything about it. I also think things are broken and our county needs some major systemic changes to give power back to the people.

And I support the ‘uncommitted’ vote in the primary to send a clear message to Biden.

But don’t kid yourself with this ‘both sides are the same’ stuff.

Biden will, at the very, very least, try to reduce suffering where he can. And that may be pathetically little.

But this is the other side that WILL come to power if you (and I mean you) don’t vote for Biden this fall:
