Lately we had an idea with my Family of building a Super Computer from Scratch. So while we were planning on building our setup, one idea came to my head that it seems possible but i want also your opinions.

Lets say that we have 2 ATX Motherboards and 1 MicroATX.

  1. Motherboard Setup:

    • 1x ASUS Rampage Extreme Black Edition
    • 1x Intel Core i7 4960x
    • 4x GTX Titan
    • 8x 8GB 1866 Ram
  2. Motherboard Setup:

    • 1x SuperMicro X9DRG-QF
    • 2x Intel Xeon E7-8890V2
    • 1x nVIDIA QUADRO K6000
    • 4x nVIDIA Tesla K40
    • 128 GB 1866 Ram

And imagine a Solid State Drive with a Switch connected to both of the MotherBoards

Can i edit & copy all the data of The first motherboard's RAM to The Other's to be able to continue operating my current Operation System after switching the SSD to the Second Motherboard, from the Second MotherBoard and vice versa?

Les say my "Switch Application" modifies everything the Kernel needs to believe nothing happend and continuing its operation from the same point the first motherboard stopped. (Changes on the Device List, CPU Cores, Drivers... etc)
