Changes

<onlyinclude>The component lists for our two current [[Research Computing Hardware]] are provided below. These parts work nicely together, which can be a challenge. Both machines use lots of common components - the same Supermicro boards, the same RAM, the same drives (more or less), etc. The boards were chosen because they support dual chip Intel Scalable CPUs on socket 3647, DDR4 at 2666MHz, have NVMe connections for the solid state drives (provided you remember to buy the oculink cables!), and have room for multiple GPUs using 16 channels of PCI-E 3.0 (though the BIOS of this board seems to prevent them from working). The chips all have fast enough clock speeds to match the RAM, and sufficient channels for the drives and GPUs. Each machine has a RAID 10 array made up initially of 4 6TB NAS drives, which are in a hot-swappable bay.
