The risers are easy to find on ebay if they are missing.Just looking at these again, I wonder if they have 3x usable PCIe slots (e.g. are the risers there?) That would make the boxes extremely useful if so.
Have you had luck selling on WHT? I am not sure what I am going to do with mine as I also picked up more 1356 gear and a 2u 2xe5-2620 serverGonna buy all remaining 6, get 12x E5-2620v2s, load up 64GB DDR3 RAM and list them on WHT for like $600+ profit each.
Wish me luck
Web Hosting Talk (unless there is another WHT that I don't know about)What's WHT? I feel like I'm missing out on a secret .
I have had zero luck selling on WHT.Have you had luck selling on WHT?
All depends on what it is. The high end SSDs and the like for one example, even if you are trying to sell them at a huge discount and are totally worth it - the overall total price will not make it feasible for the vast majority of the budgets surfing WHT.I have had zero luck selling on WHT.
1u= loud under load (4-6 40mm fans going 10K rpm). Think jet engine. Fine for server room/closet not so much for office.how hard is it to install a process on these with heatsink? I've build desktops but never messed with server type racks.
Also, are these quiet machines or very noisy? Thanks
Thank goodness someone did this! I was getting close to picking up one (or four)Please everyone buy All, so there is no temptation.
It was me. I could not resist 4 @ 230 each with shipping. Just crossing fingers for 7 rather than i version (integrated LSI 2208)Thank goodness someone did this! I was getting close to picking up one (or four)
Stunning price! Nice job!It was me. I could not resist 4 @ 230 each with shipping. Just crossing fingers for 7 rather than i version (integrated LSI 2208)
I was about to take 6, and it wasn't the best time as well... So i'm thankful to all who bought them before me.Thank goodness someone did this! I was getting close to picking up one (or four)
based on my knowledege....
Also, does anyone know the size of the fans? I want to replace with quieter ones.
There's nothing wrong with replacing fans with better specifications than the original. As long as the CFM is similar, you're fine.based on my knowledege
please do Not! or you will overheat the system.
using 40mm fans, I think is using dual fans. 1u is designed for spaced constrain, loud noise fan is not the factor.
please show the fan with the same CFM but much less fan noiseThere's nothing wrong with replacing fans with better specifications than the original. As long as the CFM is similar, you're fine.
