Dell PowerEdge R610

Shortly after finishing setting up my new dedicated server I got what I guess you would call the homelab bug. In that I got a taste for virtualization and wanted more. To further these interests I purchased a Dell PowerEdge R610, which according to Dell themselves is "An Intel®-based, 2-socket/1U server ideal for data centers and remote sites that require virtualization."

Notes

The following is all of the notes I have collected and/or written while using my R610. This information should remain up-to-date as long as you see that the R610 is still in use.
