Apologies for disappearing for a while - It is realistically going to take me another 2-3 weeks before I will be able to get caught up on replies and list updates - I have finally restored a backup of my personal laptop after an SSD failure a couple of months ago, and my main NAS with the backups had a boot SSD failure in the meantime (yes, I had intended to, but then forgotten to upgrade it from a USB stick to a DOM), and it all took forever to deal with (simple as it was) while surgery recovery assistance was eating up all of my time and sleep.

Hi all, apologies for the lack of communication recently - about three weeks ago another urgent medical situation came up suddenly, which left me no time to deal with anything until now. Fortunately it is the beginning of the resolution of the more acute situation that started last winter, so that is good.
I should be able to (actually) get my dual X9 boards onto the list, and I have decided to sell more of my chassis' including SAS3 backplane 216 with rear dual 2.5 hotswaps, and some others. Local deals/trades are as always appreciated, but I have located most of my shipping boxes and will be sorting out which of them have 2U/3U/4U inserts.

IO shields acquired, and will now be included with X10 Xeon E3-1200 v3/v4 and Atom C2000 boards!

Thanks to everyone who has responded, and my apologies for taking a few days to respond to some of you in some cases. Thanks for bearing with me while I coordinate care. I used to always reply as I saw message notices, but for now I will need to batch my DM replies - I should be able to reply at least every 2-3 days, hopefully more frequently as care patterns settle in.

Hello all,
I've had lots of fun on the forums and trading parts with many of you for several years, but I've sadly been mostly absent for the last couple of years dealing with some family health issues, which have become worse recently. I set up and completely reworked my home lab several times, but I now I really need to find new homes for a lot of the stuff I won't have time to play with anymore, for both space and cashflow reasons. I am hoping to stay a little more involved in this great community than I have been the last few years, but I will probably never have the same amount of free time as I used to, and need to scale back my sizeable home lab.
TLDR: I am selling off a bunch of my lab stuff to make space and recoup some cash for increasing bills. As you will see, most of my stuff is Supermicro gear oriented towards NAS/Storage, networking, and all in one homelab builds. My prices may not be rock bottom Ebay prices, but I have tested and upgraded firmware for everything unless noted otherwise, and I am offering free assembly and testing of any set of parts you get for me into a working system, so please bear that in mind when reviewing my list here. That said, I will adjust if things are way off market, and I tend to throw in freebies and round down if you get a lot of stuff.
If you are local in the SF Bay area, please come get things - as you might expect, I have been taking the pandemic very seriously, cleaning everything with alcohol, etc. For non-local people, I can ship Fedex Ground (account rates are 25-30% less than standard rates) or USPS Priority Mail at cost, and I'll round down (a few marked items are priced with shipping included). For shipping, I have a limited number of quality 1U-4U Supermicro and other shipper boxes with precut closed cell foam inserts, when I run out of those, I will have to go with local pickup only for any remaining larger items.
I'm linking to my old FS/FT/WTB and free stuff threads for reference (I never got around to setting up a heatware account) but items and prices in those have NOT been cleaned up yet - I have started to move items still available from those here with updated prices, but if you see anything in my older postings you are interested in, just ask, and I'll let you know if it is still available.
Here is what I definitely know I have available right now:
Complete quiet Towers running FreeNAS or Unraid on 16GB flash drive or DOM, ready for data drives! These are based on an X9SCL (or X9SCM and or -F versions w/ BMC, LMK if you care) board with a LSI SAS2008 controller (for >14 bays choose a second controller or HP SAS2 expander), CPU choice of low power Pentium G620T, i3-2120T (+$20 for Xeon e3-1220L v2 17W TDP, +$30 for Xeon e3-1260L 45W TDP) 8GB ECC unbuffered as 4x 2GB, (+$60 for 16GB as 2x 8GB instead) 80+ PSU. I can trade the x9 boards out for others, but these x9 boards do make a great low power NAS or modest AIO virtualization lab with storage.
Supermicro complete x8 dual 1366 systems w/ chassis, motherboards, CPU, Heatsinks, RAM, controllers
10% off for 10 or more, 20% off for 20 or more, I'm also looking to trade multiples for larger SSDs, see below
Here are my old threads for reference, I may update them if I get time:
Thanks for looking, and stay safe!

- $40 - Soekris Net 4801-60 256MB in case
- $60 - Soekris Net 5501-70 512MB in case
- $60 - Soekris Net 6501-70 2GB in case, but UNTESTED - I have misplaced my serial console kit, hence the low price, I have a few and will give a bulk deal if you take them all
