Hi Wido,

We have used a few racks of Wiwynn OCP servers in a Ceph cluster for a
couple of years.
The machines are dual Xeon [1] and use some of those 2U 30-disk "Knox"
enclosures.

Other than that, I have nothing particularly interesting to say about
these. Our data centre procurement team have also moved on with
standard racked equipment, so I suppose they also found these
uninteresting.

Cheers, Dan
