More on CPU specs of the ReadyNAS Pro
Hi all, Does anyone know what FSB speeds the ReadyNAS Pro motherboard supports. I have three "servers" that I'm trying to consolidate. I figured that the file server (which is actually the slowe...
Hi All,
Been reading this thread with great interest. I have two ReadyNAS Pro Pioneer systems that were purchased in 2010. We're about to do a complete disk swap with new 4TB drives to get higher capacity and dual redundancy. I'm thinking this might be a great time to breath new life into the systems with a CPU swap as well. Prices on eBay are dirt cheap and since these machines are at the end of their warranty life, I'm temped to go for it!
A few questions:
Seems like motherboard version makes a big difference in what CPUs will work. Is there an easy way to find out what my motherboard rev# is without opening the case?
For a 2010 Pro, is there any consensus on what processor will work best? I have one main goal - maximum speed without increasing temperatures while keeping all stock cooling (fans and heatsinks). My current system typically reports:
Fan SYS 897 RPM
Fan CPU 1917 RPM
Temp SYS 56 C / 132 F [Normal 0-65 C / 32-149 F]
Temp CPU 37.5 C / 99 F [Normal 0-85 C / 32-185 F]
I'd like it to stay at this level or cooler after the upgrade.
The E6400, E6600 or E6700 seem solid. Or maybe the E7400 or e7600? Or…?
Our systems have 4GB RAM (HCL compatible) and are running the latest BIOS (07/26/2010 FLAME6-MB V2.0)
Any advice/recommendations/gotchas?
Thanks!
