Grab yourself a Pint Glass at Thanks to Supermicro for sending over their all new Microcloud, featuring AMD Epyc 4005 CPUs: And thanks to Solidigm for supplying a full set of D7-PS1010 Gen5 u.2 NVMe drives: I've set up quite a few Proxmox clusters over the years, but I've never built one like this. The Supermicro Microcloud features up to 10 nodes with AMD Epyc 4565P 16-Core CPUs, along with 128GB of DDR5-ECC memory and Dual 10GbE Networking. Inside each node, we've also got a pair of Solidigm D7-PS1010 Gen5 NVMe drives, which we're going use to create one large CEPH cluster. And while this is one of the fastest Proxmox cluster I've built so far, you can replicate this at home with your own hardware and get some pretty similar results. But first... What am I drinking???
