Where Used

IT: OpenStack Undercloud Servers - Nope. ECC and hardware RAID required.

The Goods

I originally spec'd the Elitedesk 800 G3 for the Undercloud for these reasons:

  • Designed for low power, based on Kaby Lake
  • Small form factor, minimal video onboard
  • Excellent case design

Other details:

  • NON-ECC RAM: not appropriate for storage nodes, some controller elements may even be risky...
  • ONE NIC: And Intel miltu-port cards don't work. Need i250-T1 single-port cards, exactly.
  • 4 PCI-E slots. All 4 for NICs?
  • 64GB Max RAM: 4x16GB DDR4

CPU Options:

  • i5-7500T: 35W TDP
