    Help understanding backplane on a SC933 Chassis

    Ok, I'll try to take a picture later today. I thought there were only to versions on the backplane (reading the manual) and from that information, I could only see 1 HBA port.

    Help understanding backplane on a SC933 Chassis

    Hello, I was gifted a SC933 chassis (without motherboard). I have checked and found that it got a backplane with Single Host Bus Adapter (https://www.supermicro.com/manuals/chassis/3U/SC933.pdf page C-12). What kind of HBA do I need. I have one of these (https://www.ebay.com/itm/153224277440)...

    NIC bonding without switch

    Oki, I see the point, I think I'll stick to 1 NIC at first, if the link seem to be max, I can start trying to use LACP. Btw, if connected to a switch how does LACP bonded hosts work with non-LACP capable hosts?

    Asus P5B and Intel SASUC8I
