Fun note: the power button is upside down in the marketing images :p
It's not the newest stuff by any means, and the first model they list is actually a 5th gen...
While I am not 100% sure, it seems 10TB drives for about €100 is a pretty neat deal. The seller appears on multiple Amazon websites around the EU.

While I haven't really checked it out further (no idea who the actual ODM is, or if it is even real), it seems like this is a step up from the usual packages with an N...
Edit: the VEP1400 models are only 1G SFP, but the VEP1405 is 10g! Dell VEP1425 4C 2.2GHz 8GB RAM 128GB SSD Switch - Ref | eBay but it's $200 more than a VEP1400...

I'm planning on using some (extremely) cheap Z238 workstation boards (<30 USD each, ordered 2, with taxes and shipping still below €100) to create Xeon E3 v5 (essentially an i5 with ECC turned on) based servers. I'm planning on either running HarvesterHCI or Ceph+Proxmox and Kubernetes VMs on...
