Even just 1$ a month, comes out to the same as Binge-watching like 400+ of me Videos every month.
My PlayHouse is a channel where i will show, what i am working on. I have this house, it is 168 Square Meters / 1808.3ft² and it is full, of half-finished projects.
I love working with heating, insulation, Servers, computers, Datacenter, green power, alternative energy, solar, wind and more. It all costs, but I'm trying to get the most out of my money, and my time.
I agree with others, you should use the ServerView CD on that unit, especially with a Windows install, it should contain everything you need to install windows server, it will more than likely have the necessary drivers. That server is noisy! Great vid :)
Hi Unkyjoe's Playhouse
Thank You very much! Yes,, I did not have a DVD/CD drive..
Thank you for watching! :-)
Unkyjoe's Playhouse The server is noisy only until some point of system loading (BIOS...) Once ServerView or Windows has been started it's more quiet then HP DL380 series server
I've just started to follow you on Twitter. Greetings from Italy!
Hi Saverio Cannara
Thank You very much! A lot of you, have followed me today,, Thank you!
Thank you for watching! :-)
My PlayHouse I always looking forward to see your videos about IT! I like very much your server room
You can use the Serverview Boot Disk for Installation. It has all necessary drivers and Fujitsu Software like SystemMonitor and Raidmanager. I think you can still download the Serverview Disk from Fujitsu.com and use it through IRMC.
Hi mirelt
Thank You very much! glad you liked the video :-)
Thank you for watching! :-)
Awesome video as usual! This Fujitsu server is so cool!
Hi Artur Araripe
Yes *I could live with them,, would take a bit of getting use to.
Thank you for watching! :-)
Yes, use the dvd as سند الزواهرة, suggested that's how its supposed to be done. Boot it from the serverview dvd and you should be able to select windows server 2016 and than follow the wizard and the serverview does all the configuration and installing drivers as needed. Another way to get the drivers, I think, Morten is to type in the SN on fujitsus homepage and then download the desktop agent, it will download and upgrade everything for you. Although I am not 100% sure if their is a desktop agent available for servers, it is for desktops/laptops and its really neat.
Hi Fredda
Thank You very much! Yes,, I should have had a DVD drive,, or downloaded that..
Thank you for watching! :-)
Interesting video, I'm a software engineer by profession, but becoming a hardware lover. You are the person to blame, By the way followed your on Twitter :)
Hi Kasun Rajapaksha

Hey i bought a IBM x3650 M4 with 72Gb RAM and two xeon e5 2620 v2.
In my opinion a nice deal.
Nice Video.
Great Wishes from Germany.
Hi nerozocker
Thank You very much! As you have seen ,, my 24/7 server is a x3650 M4 with two E5-2690v2 awesome maschine.
Thank you for watching! :-)
@@MyPlayHouse Yes really a good server and Oh i forgot the Price 😂 260€ is really cheap and it works perfect.
Ha! I also have a teared sweater to work in! All of my thinkpads' colourscheme feels crispier, sound is sharper and cpu is about 700 mhz faster when i wear it with my custom made tailored ripped pants.
Hi paul

You need to initialize the m.2 disks in the LSI megaraid. The raid does not present the disks in raw.
Hi Mobydick
Thank You very much! How do you get in there?
Thank you for watching! :-)
@@MyPlayHouse I might be mistaken then, but is there not a RAID post screen after the bios?
Hi Mobydick
I do not know,, I was asking :-)
Thank you for watching! :-)
You can try installing windows through Fujitsu ServerView installation DVD 📀 it has all drivers you need for windows server 2016
Hi سند الزواهرة
Thank You very much! I am afraid Fujitsu got the server back 12 days ago. :-)
Thank you for watching! :-)
My PlayHouse
It's OK, thanks for the nice videos :-D
Thank you for a video, though! I have learned so much from you.

Hi Zhi Wei Lee
Thank You very much! Yes it shows the Fujitsu logo at boot,,, glad you liked the video :-)

Wasnt there a CD in the Server package? You have to install the Server with the Serverview CD
Hi Maxi1220DE
Thank You very much! I was missing a CD/DVD drive :-/
Thank you for watching! :-)
To mirror the NVMe, just use windows Disk Manager, and create a mirror there.

Thank You very much! they did not pop up in there :-/

I'm very interesting in one server FUJITSU primergy RX300 s7, the seller actually don't have the raid card, but I can watch 2 sata ports on motherboard. Can this server operate without raid card? Thanks
Hi ChasKa Chas
I do not know the FUJITSU primergy RX300 s7,, but it's not unheard of, that the server will have a HBA on the system board,, and then you expand with a Raid card if needed. Lenovo x3650 M1, M2 and M3 has this.
Thank you for watching! :-)
@@MyPlayHouse thanks to you for answering, the motherboard brings two sata ports, that's for sure because it is seen in any photo on the internet. what I do not understand is because the seller says that they are the raid card I can not install anything. thanks for answering, although I do not speak English I like your videos congratulations
Nice.. I like that server..look very similar to Ibm/lenovo
Hi Matias M.
Like everything else,, it takes a little getting use to,, but then I am sure it's fine.

Is there a big Difference between Generic Drivers and Manufacturer Drivers? Are you good to go when everything works out of the Box, specially for Chipset/Motherboard?
Hi razorblue9
Thank You very much! Most of the time the Generic drivers will work more stable than the specialised drivers from the hardware producers,, but those has more futures and can run faster.
Thank you for watching! :-)
Thanks!
did you even create the array for the m.2s in the BIOS ? its not going to see the drives if there not assigned.
Hi Sky Lak
Thank You very much! No never figured that out.
Thank you for watching! :-)
Yes! I'm early.
Hi ANTHONY CABALLERO
Thank You very much! for being an early birth.

I think you installed the driver for the onboard LSI RAID Controller, but not the Intel NVMe RAID stuff. I think it's called VROC on that system: www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000027495/server-products/server-boards.html

rip that cd\dvd to an iso mount it. FYI got my x5650 cpu's in what a difference, also got esxi 6.7U1 installed with no trouble. Now vcenter is a different ball of wax.

Install Linux instead of that Windows crap! There's a reason most servers in the world, including Google's, Apple's and Facebook's, run Linux. Apart from that, good video!
Yeah but Google, Apple and Facebook still use Windows for AD. So yeah!
Hi GRBTutorials
There is so much software that just does not exist for linux,,, there is no money to be made from selling a linux,, so most places you will not get around Microsoft Server...
Thank you for watching! :-)
You're right, linux is open source so you can't make money selling it, however there is plenty of money to be made by managing/supporting it.
@@strandvaskeren Wrong. That's a common misconception. That something's open source doesn't mean you can't sell it and make a profit (though not as easy as with proprietary models). Look at RHEL (RedHat Enterprise Linux) for a successful example of that business model. See this: www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.en.html#DoesTheGPLAllowMoney.
Did you try cloning a complete installation onto the M.2s?
Hi soccerzockt
Thank You very much! No I did at no point have access to the M.2's
Thank you for watching! :-)
Thats why there are real server operating systems like Linux not just the Windows "gooblejunk" ;)
Hi Kaai Kivi
Thank You very much! You and all the other Linux ambassadors, please let me know what distribution is the best, that has drivers for everything.
Thank you for watching! :-)
@@MyPlayHouse I use Debian and Ubuntu and driver problems are really rare
hey morten what is the link for ubuntu?

Why don't you use a benchmark that is more standard so it's comparable with what all others test? Like PCMark. Everyone else uses that. That shitty benchmark you are using isn't comparable with anything since noone else are using it.
Cinebench is OK, that has become a defacto standard. But switch out the weird benchmark with pcmark.
Hi John Kristian Aasen
Thank You very much! for you opinion. I Like PassMark and has been using it since forever and knows what the numbers represent, and can compare it with the huges list of results from : www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu_list.php
Thank you for watching! :-)
But of course you are poor! Please stay poor! Don't sell the content of those racks to buy two cars, a house and the road in front of it! :P
:-) well at some point I do need a newer car,,, but I was not planning on taking out a server loan :-)
