Update 2/26/14
All Items sold
Unfortunately, it's time for me to clean up my lab (basement) and move along some of my equipment. I'm posting on STH first as I think that some of the items will be of interest, but CL and eBay are close behind, so don't procrastinate.
This post is for a Dell PowerEdge C6100 XS23-TY3 4 Node Server. There's a long thread here that goes into all of the details of the C6100.
The configuration is as follows ..
C6100 Chassis
2x 1100W Redundant Power Supplies
4 x Nodes ( each node comprising of 2x Xeon L5520, 2x Heatsink, 6x 4GB Kingston PC3-10600R )
12x 3.5" Disk Trays
Also included in this sale are 2x additional disk trays and the Dell "backplane to interposer" cables ( 2x SFF-8087 to 4 Sata + 2x SFF-8087 to 2 SATA ) that are required to cable up 6 disks to 1 node. Note that you will also need to cable up the appropriate sled with cable part number 6J3R2 for SATA or HYJ6F if you have the SAS Mezzanine card which are NOT included in this sale.
There are a few scratches on the chassis but overall it is in great shape. The Nodes are all "mezzanine capable" and firmware is fully supported through the Dell Web site.
Installed Firmware is the latest posted on the Dell Web site:
- Chassis PIC Firmware is rev 0120
- Node BMC Firmware is rev 1.33
- Node BIOS Firmware is rev 1.71
All of the following photos / screen dumps are of the actual unit for sale ..
1) Front ..
Keen observers will note that a few of the disk trays only have a single power indicator and not both Power and Activity indicators. This has not mattered to me, but I mention it for the sake of completeness !

3) Rear and Top ..
4) Rear ..
5) Node ..
6) Warranty Details for this unit ..
7) CPU Details for all 4 Nodes as reported by AIDA64 CPUID

Let me know if there are any other details that you need ..
Price and Shipping ...
I'm asking $925 + shipping, payable via PayPal.
I'm located in Portland OR, and I'd be happy to meet up with anyone local, and cash works fine for a F2F transaction.
Per the sticker on the top of the unit, this is an 80lb device. The shipping box will be approx 36" x 24" x 12". A quick check with FedEx shows that Ground shipment to the East Coast, say New York 10007 (just an example) would be about $100.
My preference is to ship to the contiguous 48, but if you want to arrange your own freight ( see the discussion at the bottom of this thread then I'll try and work with you.
