LOL Patrick. But then again, prices in this field are constantly doing that. I remember how excited I was to be able to double my memory to a whole MB when 256KB 72 pin simms came down to $50 each.

I have these if you're still looking.

No longer available. Sold switch and Mezz cards on Ebay and netted a little over $1,050 after fees and shipping.

This includes a Voltaire VLT-30111 TM 4036 36-Port QDR Switch, 2 JR3P1 Dell C6100 Mellanox Infiniband Daughter Cards, and 2 1-meter Brocade QSFP Cables. Total cost to buy these same products today on Ebay would be $879 for the switch, $338 for the 2 JR3P1 Cards and $110 for the 2 Brocade QSFP...

Sorry, was sold.

Right now I need time more than money so this is simpler. Besides, I've probably benefited from your advice far more than the $150 or so difference. PM me with your contact and paypal info and I'll invoice you once I get these boxed and shipped.

Yes, all 4 sleds were from the same system.

For sale are four nodes for the Dell C6100, with dual Xeon L5520's and no memory. I'll let these go for $75 and actual shipping costs each. All four were updated with latest firmware as of 5/10. One node is missing the blank where a Infiniband Daughter card was installed and will come with all 6...

For those of you that carefully watch power, just how much does it cost to run one of these with all 4 nodes? Kind of a mid-range dollar per month estimate might be nice. I realize there are varying power rates and I wish I had a utility bill available to tell you how much per Kwh. Thanks in...

Man, was I glad to have found this post too. Thanks for sharing, it helped me in recovering two bricked boards. As soon as we quit getting snow I can move my rack from the garage down to my basement and begin setting up my VM lab.
