ernie, 2 months ago Got my old Xeon back online for the first time in a bit. The power supply got knocked out by a storm so I had to buy a new one. It's at this point I learned I have a four-year old version of PopOS on this thing

samueldr, 2 months ago @ernie neat, got one now re-used as a NAS (by shoving a 5×3.5" cage in the 3×5.25" bays). "Rocking" an E5-1660 (v1), and way too much RAM at 64GiB. Though, configurations vary wildly, what's the CPU like on your setup?

ernie, 2 months ago @samueldr also have 64GB of RAM on this. I have an NVMe drive in it I was using as a boot drive, you can work around the lack of NVMe support with Clover which is nice
