Powering Up HPE Cloudline CL3100 G3 - 1121

This video is sponsored by Bargain Hardware, who asked if I would review there 1U HPE Cloudline CL3100 G3 server.
This server is spicial with the 12 internal 3.5" hard drives,, in the longest 1U server I have ever seen. So in this video we have a really long good look :-)

In this video we turn it on and I stuff 100TB in it. :-)

For 3$ a month, you get an extra weekly "What's UP" update video. Just for my Patrons. The Support I resave on patreon is all used on stuff to make interesting videos on YouTube.

My PlayHouse is a channel where i will show, what i am working on. I have this house, it is 168 Square Meters / 1808.3ft² and it is full, of half-finished projects.

I love working with heating, insulation, Servers, computers, Datacenter, green power, alternative energy, solar, wind and more. It all costs, but I'm trying to get the most out of my money, and my time.

Hi Morten! Thanks for your videos! They are really cool and useful.

Hi Morten, are you Teasing me? About mentioning, keeping my HPDL80-G7 under my Bed. In a few of my Videos. I did, reconsider. I put it in my Closed, to keep my Clothes warm in the winter;) But now, I get a bit chilly on those winter nights. Because, of the Vent I cut into the Attic, to let the heat out. The Vent Fan I bought. With Louvers. Which automatically close, when the fan is off. And the Dryer Vent, with the Flapper. Didn't work out too well. The Fan actually, could not open both of them. So, I put a screw in the Dryer Vent Flapper, to keep it open. The brand new Vent Fan, setup. Could barely open it's own Vents. It ran for two hours. Then started making a noise and slowing down. So, I took it out. And hung 6 inch Fan I had, from Zip Ties. Just kind of aiming at the Dryer Vent in the Ceiling. I works ok, but Air can go both ways, in and out. Being in the Closet, does keep the noise down, pretty well. I planning on trying to put a spare HP server Fan in that Vent. If I can figure out, the Pin out on it. And find a good way to attach the wiring to to it. Preferably without soldering, directly to the Fans Contacts. I might need it for the Server, one day... Thanks for making these Videos. I was thinking about buying one. But Ya, I think that thing would even bee to loud for my Closet... Don

I miss the videos from your work. Like the DAS you mentioned

[PyroKalfje]

de-stress from crashing buggy premiere pro by watching interesting fun video from my playhouse

Imagine going into a datacentre where the AC has failed and hearing about 500 of these at full tilt, must be terrifying😂

[mkoza]

Can you give more details about remote management?
Can you see power module status, power usage, etc.?

[eDoc]

In the future can you show us how much power the servers you review use?

[a.j.haverkamp]

There is very little room for air to pass the hard drives. I guess that’s why the fans are so loud, they have to build a high pressure to push the air to the back of the server. It doesn’t look like a HPE server at all on the inside.

[dasiro]

can you read anywhere how much power it consumes? That could create a use-case for it because only a lot of non-hotswappable storage isn't going to make it if you can have SAN's or other cheap servers, since there's no added value by HPE

[digitalsparky]

Morten, that's not a server, that's an aircraft.... :P

[ducky-]

That AMI Management is very similar to ILO2

[dawnberlitz]

that sever forsure holds more drives than what i have but im surprised HP would use a rather basic looking bios on it compared to dell which had one where ya could use a mouse to make selections if u wanted to

6:31 SATA Hot Plug capability is a property of the SATA controller involved. Since at least 10-15 years I've never seen a server that did not support this and you may be very sure that everything running under the Avago brand (now belonging to Broadcom btw.) does support Hotplugging. I believe their last controllers not to support Hotplug date back to the old LSI Logic days. :-)

Whats the cloudline power consumption?

[bufanda]

I've never owned a dual socket server, but always wondered what happens when you put two diffrent CPUs in like a 6 core and a 12 core of the same line. My bet is that the system won't post with a CPU error.

Hvilken uddannelse kræver det at bygge og arbejde med servere ? finder det utrolig spændene at bygge pcer og tænker da det kunne være noget for mig, men hvor starter man ? Vh Michael

[ballfpv]

something therapeutic about the noise of running servers... Small suggestion for these videos, run them through a wattage meter so you can show us power draw

[mastermoders]

It is very annoying when windows reserves space on another disk, they should add a prompt before doing it automatically so that you can choose the primary disk

[mikeunum]

A turbine on startup. Jesus. Hahaha. The 120GB SSD is that the one from the Tiny 72 or the Tiny 92?

😆 I'm glad I don't have a system with 56TB+ of storage space in it. I wouldn't know what to do with that kind of capacity, but although I said I'm glad I don't have that much space, I do now kinda wish I did for some reason.
