    If you missed it, check out the first video on the Turing Pi 2: th-cam.com/video/IUPYpZBfsMU/w-d-xo.html - I give an overview of the board and check how it would compare on the Top500 Supercomputer list!
    The Turing Pi 2 *should* be going live on Kickstarter (I think) sometime towards the end of this month or early next month; make sure to sign up to be notified on the Turing Pi website if you're interested.
    Special thanks to MyElectronics.nl for sending me this 2U mini ITX enclosure. Maybe we can convince them to tweak the design and sell it on their site :)

    Thanks for another _very_ complete video, Jeff. And by that I mean, you really worked through the bugs and kinks and probably had to wait on replies and parts and 3d prints before even shooting parts of the video. It's a "complete" walk-through with all questions answered or at least addressed. This is, for lack of a better phrase, very good "tech journalistic content". Well done!

    Until you can get "better thermal management", I'd certainly tape up the cooling slots on the end near the fan and at least the first row on the top left (perhaps first 2) so you can induce your own thermal management airflow. I don't know what kind of heat loads those CMs will have but I certainly agree with you on their needing more airflow.

    • @JeffGeerling

    Regarding the 4:00 mark I actually like the way they've set up the 5 2.5" drive mounting as it means the rear fan pulls air across them to keep them cool which is pretty important if you were going to be thrashing them.
    Maybe a thin top sheet could be provided/3d Printed to connect all the 2.5" drives together from the top too. Alternatively that could be extended into a shroud to funnel the air from the case through the SSDs then out.

  • @Doesntcompute2k
    @Doesntcompute2k 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Great video as always, Jeff! Looks like they could cut an access hole in the top, placing one twist-screw to hold it down in front, and a double open-hinge in back so the "lid" comes off; This would allow full access to the mini-ITX board. Also, while I don't see rack mounting holes, it looks like there is enough metal to place standard-spaced holes to attach generic rack mount rails. It ALMOST looks like you could put rails on there, and have one unit in the front of the 2u and one behind it. But I did not see dimensions. We used to do that for 1/2-depth servers a lot. But at least it comes with wings. I'm just not a fan of wings built onto the box, I'd rather have them screw-on like most routers and switches. I know--small thing. :) I'd like one of these. Have the TP2 on order. I have eight CM4s. Waiting to see what CM5 is.

    This is definitely a prototype rack case. It is looney to have screws from the bottom holding drives in. Make it so the front cover is the access to the drive bays and put the drives on a sled. The screws for the lid are okay if there is a hinged access door in the top that requires no screws at all. There should also be at least provisions in the sides of the case for small fans. Almost all of these changes can be done by modifying the sheet metal. Nothing fancy needed.

Mounted 6 2TB WD Green drives to the cover, screwed a hinge to back edge so you didn’t just pull the cover off and rip the SATA cables out of the drives. Suited my needs for a couple years before I got a proper case. Just comical to see the same mounting method

    I must admit that attaching both SATA ports to node #3 and all USB 3.0 conenctors to #4 is a serious design flaw: For redundancy (and maybe load balancing), you would attach on of the SSDs to one node, and the other SSD to another one (just in case one of the CM4s should fail). You could then use Ceph to establish a RAID over both nodes (and both drives).

    Good luck actually trying to buy a Pi, let alone 4 of them.

    Putting the top of the case on before testing it is tempting murphys law.

    there are several 2RU case options. but many are WAY too expensive. the Monoprice box (can a link go here?) is a $1oo bucks. you could also sacrifice some old rack server. those you can often find for cheap or even better free. however, most RUbox of that style are really long. and noisy.

    6:35 in - check out the bend in that motherboard - just glance at the sockets behind the IO shield and see how far they go out of alignment. Will the PCB be made thicker or less bendy before release?

      To be honest, I think the better solution would be to either place a spacer on the middle of the motherboard or make sure the enclosure has the middle stand-off installed for better stability. the board itself doesn't flex too bad, but some of the plugs near the middle require a bit of force to install.

    The long pole in the tent….is actually being able to buy the Turing Pi 2. At that point, then I’d consider a case.

      I did too... then about 10 years ago I stopped working on PC hardware. But my how the tables have turned!

    If you had a CNC then you might be able to wake a water-block that would accommodate all the Raspberry PI IVs and cool all of your Raspberry PI IVs

    • @JeffGeerling
      @JeffGeerling  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Heh, that would be quite the setup! It's doable though... if the Turing Pi 2 gets popular, maybe someone could even sell a unified cooling block (or just a huge heatsink that spans four Pis).

    Nice Case. Is it possible to mount an extra 80mm fan in front of the Mainboard? That would be a better cooling solution for all Boards.

    Hi Jeff , how are you? I know you are smiling to the camera; but, still looks like you are dealing with exhaustion. Either way I will continue keep you and your love ones in my prayers and wishes.🙏

    I really want to get more into RPi cluster. I only have one running NAS duty and own cloud. But wondering what more could I do with 4.

    I like smartctl "sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda" I use it to monitor the temperature as well if things get to hot I shut things down. I also watch the processor temps with sensor and shut things down 2 degrees C before critical.
