computer to a good home.
I was using this system as a file server for a number of years. The motherboard is a Asus SLI/KFN5-D with 2 AMD quad core Optron CPU's with something like 12G of ram. It also has a 3wear 8port raid controller with 8 SATA cables. The motherboard and case are ok but the power supply had a problem and in trying to fix it managed to fry the drives and drive enclosures. There are 2 4 drive SATA holders and 5 drive SATA holder but unfortunately the back-plane electronics look to be fried. If someone wants it they are welcome to it otherwise it will be going to the recycling dumpster. -- Alvin Starr || voice: (905)513-7688 Netvel Inc. || Cell: (416)806-0133 alvin@netvel.net ||
I also have a DELL 2950 with 500GB of SCSI disks and dual gigE. It can't run either VMWare or Hyper-V, but its great for disk IO. On Wed, Apr 5, 2017 at 2:28 PM, Alvin Starr via talk <talk@gtalug.org> wrote:
