Can't find B300 capacity?
We have a Dell B300 server ready to go.
UNIXSurplus has a Dell B300 server, InfiniBand switches, PDUs, and rack space available now, with our partner @WattageHosting
PCIe 5.0 doubles the bandwidth of PCIe 4.0
NVMe sequential reads push past 13,000 MB/s.
For AI pipelines and high-throughput storage, thatβs the difference between a storage layer that keeps up and one that bottlenecks everything.
Most standard server racks were designed before GPU servers existed.
Standard racks are 600mm wide, ~1000mm deep.
GPU servers are deeper, heavier, and run hotter.
Teams that force them into standard racks end up with doors that wonβt close and thermals that go sideways
Most people know what a PDU does. Fewer know the difference between basic, metered, and switched.
In a colo or remote DC, switched is the difference between a remote reboot and a 2am site visit.
Most people see βQSβ on a processor listing and assume itβs a downgrade. Itβs not.
QS = Qualification Sample chips AMD produces during final validation before full production.
Same spec, same die, same architecture as the retail chip. Different channel, different price
Most people picture an enclosed cabinet when they think server rack.
But in a dedicated server room with controlled access, open-frame is often the smarter choice, better airflow, easier cabling, faster to reconfigure, and lower cost.
The Micron 7450 Pro E1.S 15mm β 7.68TB brand-new PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe, read-intensive TLC, hardware SED encryption. Built for the servers modern data centers are being designed around.

Most people know M.2 and U.2 drives.
Fewer know E1.S and itβs becoming one of the most important form factors in data center storage. EDSFF was designed specifically for high-density NVMe: better thermals, better airflow, more drives per rack unit.
Most teams donβt realize they have a choice in what OS runs their network switches. Traditional enterprise switches bundle proprietary software with hardware β changing vendors means starting over. SONiC breaks that dependency entirely.
The Supermicro AOC-STG-I4T gives you 4x 10GbE RJ45 ports, Intel 82580 controller, PCIe x8 β broad VMware, Windows Server & Linux support.
Still on 1GbE?
This is your upgrade.

10GbE is one of the most impactful server upgrades you can make. RJ45 is the reason most people actually follow through. SFP+ needs transceivers and fiber. RJ45 uses Cat6 you already have β plug in and youβre at 10Gbps. No extra hardware, no complexity.
