Hi Wido, what are you trying to optimise? Space? Power? Are you tied to OCP? I remember Ciara had some interesting designs like this http://www.ciaratech.com/product.php?id_prod=539&lang=en&id_cat1=1&id_cat2=67 though I don't believe they are OCP. I also had a look and supermicro has a few that may fill your requirements (https://www.supermicro.nl/products/system/1U/6019/SSG-6019P-ACR12L.cfm) On Fri, Dec 22, 2017 at 1:40 PM, Dan van der Ster <dan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi Wido, > > We have used a few racks of Wiwynn OCP servers in a Ceph cluster for a > couple of years. > The machines are dual Xeon [1] and use some of those 2U 30-disk "Knox" > enclosures. > > Other than that, I have nothing particularly interesting to say about > these.
