HSV and SFO
I have several really old Dell servers I am gonna bin but if anyone wants them they are welcome to them.

They are mostly generation 9 servers 1950/2950's etc but one is a generation 10 R905, there is also quite a lot of ecc ddr2 between them some fb and some not.

If anyone is interested I can put together a list and check what works and is complete, but I am guess they are too old for anyone to have an interest.

I am in Devon UK for any collections.

let me know if anyone wants a list.
Good on you to pass this gear on. It's older, but I just found out that apparently proxmox 8 even works on old core duos so these are still good for learning.

Local pickup in Serverius DC1, Dronten. We have cancelled our cabinet and are giving away the following hardware to the first person who can pick it up locally before Fri May 17th:

7x SuperServer 6028TP-TR2 (total of 28 nodes) . Each node: 2x E5-2670v3, 64GB RAM, Crucial MX500 SSD
2x Mikrotik CRS354-48G-4S+2Q+
2x Mikrotik CCR1009-7G-1C-1S+
1x Mikrotik CRS326-24S+2Q+RM
1x Storage drawer Assmann DN-19 KEY-3U-SW

You must unrack it yourself and must also remove all UTP, DAC and power cables. This is working hardware for which we have no longer any need. We tried to sell it but could not find any buyers so we need someone to remove it in order to be able to cancel the cabinet.

I simply refuse to believe that by judging the current enterprise hardware market. :rolleyes:
The problem with local pick ups is that it restricts the buyer spectrum a lot. We cannot ship because the remote hands costs of unracking and packing usually exceed the hardware costs.

We ended up giving the hardware away to Serverius. They will use it for their trainees to practice. So this is no longer available.

Sorry, completely forgot the hassle of packing and shipping stuff, especially if there's multple buyers. :D

But seems things ended well and the kit is now in good use rather than making some eBay reseller serious bucks with insane markups.

In case you still haven't found a solution I'm able to pick it up, even this or next week would be fine.
