Edit 2017-01-30 Closing this FS thread. There will be a new one next week as the Sunnyvale and Fremont data centers get a refresh.

Just going to make a single thread here. Recently shut down the Las Vegas colocation facility and am full in the others so selling many items. All prices are going to be shipped to the US. International folks feel free to use Shipitto with a US address.

Now accepting Monero for full/ partial payment.

These are data center pulls so assume normal wear and tear:

Atom Family
  • All sold
Networking
  • Gnodal GS4008 (40 port SFP+ 10GbE and 8 port QSFP+ 40GbE switch) - $550 -- Note this switch does have shipping damage to one of the PSUs - see here It looks like the handle got crushed thanks to the DC handling/ shipping. The other PSU is fine. Suggest this is treated as a single PSU unit and if you want a redundant PSU to source another one.
  • Mikrotik CCR1036-8G-2S+EM (36 core Mikrotik 10GbE router with 16GB RAM) - $690
Storage
  • All sold
CPUs
  • All sold
Machine Learning GPUs/ Xeon Phi
  • All sold

Server Systems
  • Supermicro SYS-7048GR-TR - 4x GPU Chassis w/ 2x 2kW 80+ Titanium power supplies - $1200
    • Will ship in original box
    • Has desktop "feet" but can be converted to 4U rack mount by purchasing rail kit
    • Missing 1x 3.5" drive tray
    • Currently, the unit has 2x 12C /24T 2.6GHz E5-2690 V3 QS chips and 128GB (16GB x8) but happy to discuss potential CPU options. CPUs/ RAM not included.
    • Will require BIOS flash to accept V4 chips
I am going to be updating this thread as I open more boxes

Upcoming items
This is a note to myself. Need to validate configurations before listing for sale.

Sold Items
Making a section with sold items.
  • (SOLD) 2x Crucial M500 240GB (pfSense Boot SSDs) - $100 for the pair
  • (SOLD) 4x 8GB SK.Hynix ECC DDR3L SODIMMs (for Avoton/ Rangeley boards) - $100 for the set
  • (SOLD) Supermicro A1SAi-2750F (8 core Avoton mITX) bare board + 32GB RAM (4x 8GB ECC SODIMMs) - $375
  • (SOLD) Supermicro A1SRi-2758F (8 core Rangeley mITX) - $300 bare board
  • (SOLD) Low Power Xeon E3-1245 V3 server - 1U - 16GB RAM - 120GB S3500 - $350
  • (SOLD) 3x 3TB WD Red + 1x HGST 3TB - $250 for the set of four drives
  • (SOLD) 2x Dell PowerConnect 5524 (24 port 1GbE + 2 port 10GbE SFP+ + HDMI stacking) - $325 for the pair and will throw in a HDMI cable for stacking. These are nice since you can stack without using the 10GbE ports.
  • (SOLD) 4x NVIDIA GRID M40 (4x GM107L with 4GB RAM per GPU and 16 total) $475 ea or $1800 for all 4. Please do read the NVIDIA GRID M40 guide. These are essentially 4x Maxwell generation GPUs (GeForce 750 Ti like) with 4GB RAM and a PLX switch chip on each card. Nice single slot low power solution.
    • You will need to have a compatible system (BIOS settings with 8x GPUs are important)/ cooling to use them.
    • Despite being GRID cards they are not GRID supported so you are looking at CUDA cards/ video encoding cards.
    • You can run them independently for CUDA applications and use them with Docker containers. See the example here with a system using 2 of these cards doing cryptocurrency mining and earning around 0.2 XMR/ day which is about a $33/month profit using $0.10/kWh electricity
  • (SOLD) 4x Crucial M500 480GB - $375 for the set
  • (SOLD) Intel Xeon E3-1281 V3 - $300
  • (SOLD) 2U 2-node SM SYS-6027TR-D71FRF $2200 - you can see more about the system here.
    • 128GB ram in each node
    • Dual E5-2665 V1 (C0) (possibly ES but they work in this machine without issue and I do not want to open it back up to check under heatsinks)
    • Mellanox FDR Infiniband QSFP
    • LSI SAS2108 512MB RAID onboard
    • 1x Seagate 200GB SAS per node
    • Note: there was shipping damage from Fiberhub to CA so the front rack ears are bent a bit. Seems to install Ubuntu fine on both nodes. Will get pictures online as soon as I can.
  • (SOLD) Supermicro 1U Avoton system - $335
    • Supermicro CSE 505-203B case (front I/O)
    • Supermicro A1SAi-2550F (quad core Avoton)
    • 16GB (4x 4GB) ECC SODIMM RAM
    • Intel 320 40GB SSD with fresh pfSense 2.3.2 pre-installed
  • (SOLD) Intel Core i7-2600K
  • (SOLD) Intel Core i7-4770K
  • (SOLD) Intel Core i7-4770
  • (SOLD) 36 bay Supermicro 4U storage barebones double-sided chassis
    • Supermicro X9DRH-7TF with onboard RAID controller and 10Gbase-T
    • Wired for 4x SFF-8063 and 5x SFF-8087 for use with a 9305-16i (not included)
    • CPUs ?
    • 64GB DDR3 (8x8GB)
  • (SOLD) Supermicro X9SBAA-F + 8GB Kingston SODIMM + 60GB Corsair Force GT (boot SSD) - $110 - local pickup will get free short depth 1U chassis with PSU.
  • (SOLD) 2x Intel Xeon Phi 31S1P - no brackets - $295 each
  • (SOLD) Synology DS1812+ 8-bay NAS w/ 8x 2TB HGST hard drives (mixed Coolspin and 7200rpm)
    • Drives were working during erase but they are older drives so bundling them with the NAS for free in the event you can use them.
  • (SOLD) ASUS STRIX GTX 970 4GB
  • (SOLD) Dell PowerEdge C6220 3.5" chassis with 4x nodes. $2050. Each node has:
    • 3x with Dual Intel Xeon E5-2670 V1 and 1x with Dual Intel Xeon E5-2620 V1 (to keep power consumption from maxing out under 100% load.
    • 64GB RAM
    • Dual 10GbE SFP+ networking via mezzanine cards so PCIe slot is free. (Have Mellanox cards add $200 for a set of 4 and you can have both sets)
    • Includes 12x 3.5" drive trays
    • I doubt they will actually service the chassis but it does have a valid service tag for onsite service expiring October 15, 2017
(SOLD) Dell PowerEdge C6100 3.5" chassis internal with 4x dual processor nodeNode 0 - 2x Xeon L5520
    • Node 1 - 2x Xeon L5520
    • Node 2 - 2x "mystery CPUs" (Q4H9 Xeon L5638's) 6x Supertalent PC3-10600R 8GB (1333MHz)
    • Node 3 - 2x Xeon X5650 6x Supertalent PC3-10600R 8GB (1333MHz) + 6x Kingston PC3-10600R 4GB (1333MHz)
    • Will include spare PSU
    • Including 4x 3.5" drive traysA

@OBasel replied and yes, the LV colo was extremely full - only so much garage space to open these boxes. Still adding bits into the evening.

@PigLover - indeed, it served STH well!

I'll buy the Gnodal and possibly the C6220 when that's listed.

Trying to figure out if I want the C6220 or the Supermicro 2N2U in the lab. Leaning a bit toward the 2N2U but the C6220 is installed at the moment so being incumbent is useful. Not knowing the config of the 2N2U makes it a bit harder :)

3TB drives are now pending. More items added.

Either way I will take the Gnodal.

Ok - Let me double-check that tonight. I think the Mikrotik is actually the EM model with 16GB RAM not the 4GB model.

@MiniKnight wife told me time to stop with the server stuff and I did not get to that box. It was all L5520's but I think I updated it to L5639, L5640 or X5670's at some point. Will look and update tomorrow.

The more the merrier! I just care that it has the SFP+ ports really.
