Metal

The boxes themselves — cores, memory, disks

cores The processors — three matched server chips, two standalone. memory ECC throughout — error-correcting, because the work runs for months. disks Mirrored NVMe on ZFS — every write lands in two places.

In a nutshell

Strip away the houses and the rooms and you’re left with the silicon: processors, memory, and the disks beneath them. This layer is only the owned hardware — the cloud machines that rent their capacity by the month aren’t metal, because nothing there is yours to hold. What remains is the cluster’s matched server processors, two standalone desktop-class chips, the error-correcting memory that keeps long-running workloads honest, and the mirrored NVMe everything is written to. The exact models and capacities are recorded in the Hardware Manifest; this layer is about what each component is and why it’s there.
