Installation - Hardware Installation
Introduction
I didn't take enough pictures during installation back in 2020, so I will show what I have as much as I can.
The installation of the computing cluster was separated as a sub project. For more information, please refers to the Computing Cluster Project.
The deployment of the 40G LAN was separated as a sub project. For more information, please refers to the 40G Network Project.
Installing Individual Server
For simplicity, I will only include pictures for R740 here.
Installing CPU
Apply thermal compound.
Installing CPU Cooler
Later, the cooler was upgraded trying to reduce noise..
Installing Other Components
Stability & Performance Test
Once the server was up and running, I installed Windows and performed CineBench R15 to make sure the server was running at optimal performance.
