node01 just went from one NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell to two. The motivation was simple: a single 96GB card is plenty for shared inference and small-to-medium training jobs, but it can't run true multi-GPU parallel training. With model sizes creeping up, we needed a second card so people can actually spread a training job across GPUs instead of being capped at one.

I recently installed two Samsung 970 EVO Plus 1TB NVMe drives into our QNAP TS-855X NAS as a read/write cache layer. The result: write speed jumped from 169 MB/s to 673 MB/s — nearly 4×.
