Hey all,
I'm thinking about simplifying my home network/server setup to just a router/switch/access point. I use this machine to host ZFS shares and run pfsense, but I really only have one computer that accesses the shares so am not making full use of it.
The machine:
Supermicro CSE-826B 12-bay rackmount chassis with rails included and newer SAS3 backplane (sas3-826el1)
Supermicro X10SRi-F motherboard
Xeon V3 E5-1620 3.5GHz quad
4 x 4GB ECC RAM
IBM M1015 SAS/SATA controller (flashed to IT mode for ZFS)
2 x 128GB 2.5" redundant SSDs in chassis rear (Micron M600)
2 x 920W PWS-920P-SQ redundant 80+ Platinum PSUs
Extra quad-gigabit Intel NIC installed
$800 including shipping. Rock solidly reliable, haven't shut this down or restarted since I finished initial setup 7+ months ago. Chassis is in excellent shape.
Also have an APC SMT1500RM2U UPS in excellent shape with 5 month old batteries. Kept this machine and all network stuff up through multiple power outages over the past 7+ months, works great. Face plate included.
$270 including shipping
Tripp-Lite "SR12UBEXPNDKD" 12U server-depth open frame rack -- $110 shipped, excellent condition.

Located near Boston MA. Local pickup encouraged if I get lucky enough to find someone local and avoid shipping some of this stuff! Paypal accepted, will ship via UPS after careful packaging.
Thanks.
EDIT: adding pics of the server here (can see the rack too. Ignore the Edgerouter that I have yet to wallmount): Supermicro CSE-826B
