I was looking for a small, low power and silent server for my home lab. I found Supermicro A2SDV-16C-TLN5 with 16 cores, and it fit perfectly in the Supermicro chassis CSE-E300.
The chassis included one fan. I thought this was the perfect home lab server; I could have 256GB RAM as max.
I thought the server didn’t need extra cooling, but I was very wrong.
