Can Fujitsu Primergy M4 use second gen xeons?

Hi! Getting a Fujitsu primergy rx4770 m4 and I see that they are intended for use with the first gen Xeon scalable CPUs (like the gold 6142) but does anyone know if they can work with the second gen like the gold 6230? Obviously for a 4x I would want to stick to lower tdp CPUs, but I know systems like the dell r740 can do first or second gen while the Fujitsu seems to have gone with an M5 revision for the second gen.

If anyone has tested it I’d love to hear your results!

Considering an HPE Apollo 4200 Gen 10

Looking at upgrading one of my unraid servers from a dell r720xd to an HPE Apollo gen 10 - this would double the 3.5" drive bays available (12-> 24) but are there any issues or oddities with these systems? Anyone used one for unraid before and did it work well or have particular issues you ran into?

I have previously used a pi to run a display in my pc case, so I decided to get a xenon edge and the build quality is quite nice. I hooked it up to a pi 5 and this way it can be a stand-alone dashboard that doesn’t have any performance impact on my desktop - plus I can show stats from anything I want to via influxdb. I have made a web gui that the pi hosts, allowing me to add live wallpapers or images that rotate on a schedule, and add/edit widgets. I also have the pi watch for telemetry for my gaming pc to cut off when it sleeps, and uses that as a flag to sleep the xeneon edge. It then wakes back up when the gaming pc wakes up.

Pretty happy with it so far, though there’s plenty more to tinker with!
