hello everyone thanks for tuning in today’s Article is going to be about tech as some of you may know my normal day job of an IT supervisor and I I do that to pay the bills but as you well know a much preferred during gardening the reason for this project for this build is going to be kind of branch the channel out a little bit cover some things that I’m not normally covering and the big reason for this is to get some of those old videos on online I’ve got videos going back to 2014 that I just have not put on because my machine cannot handle encoding I mean it would take a day to do a movie and it’s just it’s just not any fun when you put in those kind of hours so so what I’m what I’m looking to do is kind of branch out a little bit show some tech but tech for reason so this machine that I’ve got here
HP proliant dl360p a Xeon LS 5506 clocked at two point one three gigahertz it’s a four core processor with 24 gigs of ECC ddr3 1333 memory I bought this for 125 dollars at local County option what I’m going to be doing is I’m going to be upgrading this machine to a matched pair of Xeon X 56 75 3.0 6 gigahertz hex core 6 core processors I’m going to be doubling the memory to 48 gigabytes of ddr3 1 333 or 1333 the machine has dual 10k 300 XS and dual 1:46 10ks not sure why it was done like that not sure if it was shipped that way but for all intents and purposes this is going to be roughly 450 gig watts of rated storage and it’s strictly going to handle the rendering and encoding
these Xfurbish Article because this server was originally a single processor machine I’ve had to buy all the parts to convert it to a dual processor machine you know of course the board itself artists supports it but I had to get everything so let’s kind of run through those and I’ll give you a pricing on it as well this is Seaton heating cost me 14.95 standard aluminium block the processors they were a hundred bucks for the matched pair so 50 bucks apiece these were used of course but see everything you can see that I’m not sure they are that’s one and that’s the second one this is hot the pan to keep everything cool at least on that processor Bay surprisingly this wasn’t even in there so not sure if someone robbed it or just came configured that way but this was 14.95 so that’s for another bill I’ll show that to the side for future video then I got the additional 24 gigs of memory that cost me 40 194 for 24 gigs of ECC memory again it’s pc3 1333 or 1006 6 I’m sorry 1010 600 alright we’re going to do is going to start breaking down getting everything apart getting the top off and putting everything together okay we’re going to do is let this top up remember cash very controller now you want to come out of it go buy the shroud out of the way from right now start here this is where our secondary processors going to go that shroud is no longer using let’s grab our first processor I’m going to do is I’m going to go ahead and clean up again these are used so still got some compound around the sides and we’ll go ahead and clean that up a little actual propanol you that one’s done let’s go ahead and put the fan in alright let’s go ahead and take the memory put it in on this side
you okay then take this holy check off you okay so put in matching 3.06 tech score X 56 75 the young processors I have put in an additional fan bank and put an additional 24 gigs of memory which now takes me to forty eight gigs of memory dual 3.06 hex core processors and of course additional cooling for that and additional heat sink for that processor what I’m going to do is fire it up and see if those changes came across now notice I’m only using one power supply that’s fine for just for redundancy would do is go ahead move over the first power supply though just for testing purposes well that’s not good just needed a little bit of time okay there was something there the fans are going probably going to get some throttling or ambient temperature errors see what we got this server is very slow to boot I’m not sure if it’s just a function and shop it that or my workplace were primarily a Dell shop so I’ve had very limited experience with the HP’s but this one is slow to get going soon not sure if it’s a function of the machine or just the server going through checking everything you can see it’s quiet really quiet now even with the top off so that’s a that’s a good thing what I do like about this as well as internal SD and USB for those of you that are more experienced with the HP price list line of servers shoot me a message below let me know does it always take that long okay 3.7 gigahertz power supply failure fine where your other by preparing to enable 12 cores two processors attention standards coming up nowhere 3.07 good work incentive 3.06 I’ll take it see it’s picked up sound with the fans more likely I’m going to presume that HP’s are like Yale’s is kicking – speed because the tops off so you’ve got thermal you all at all and very successful install I like it everything’s picked up hopefully you’ll see this video come out being rendered on this machine I will I will definitely post some thoughts on that as I’m rendering with it hopefully hoping that it is considerably faster than being a cold core 2 quad core that I got for my rendering machine that is now seven eight nine years maybe ten years old lesson learned not trying to render on old hard work but is what it is it works for me I work on machines all day when they come home I do not want to have to work on them again in my personal life so there it is hope you enjoyed this video if you did give me a thumbs up if you didn’t you know what to do give me some constructive feedback I’d love it I want to see if if moving into some more tech may benefit the channel any and all if you all like it also like I said if anyone out there has an HP server again this one’s a dl360 g7 if you have slow boot times let me know I’m just curious I’m not used to it being this low now just rambling hope you all liked the video let me know have a good day be blessed
