| 300002 | 2004-12-06 04:06:00 | A mates got a Compaq Proliant 800 server that hes thinking of replacing and he has asked me what I think its worth. Unfortunately I havent a clue. Soooo, maybe some of you good folk out there would care to give me a ballpark figure? Specifications as far as I can tell are: Two SCSI HDDs, one 20gig (10,000rpm) one 4.2gig (7200rpm) Tandberg SLR5 4/8gig tape backup Single Intel 350mhz P2 Processor (provision for two as far as I can tell?) 128meg Ram FDD & CD ROM All neat and tidy, but is there a market for such an animal, or maybe hed get more for it as pieces? Whats your thoughts? Cheers Bob |

| 300006 | 2004-12-06 06:40:00 | Thanks Guys, Well, it doesnt seem to be use or ornament does it. I had searched Trademe Graham but didnt see the Server section. :p Now Ive found it you seem to be spot on drb. Too heavy for a door stop Stan, the door would be stuck open and with the wind weve been having that would be a disaster. I wonder what the power supply could be used for? Small welder? I might have a look to see what its rated at. Maybe run Christmas lights for the whole neighbourhood? :D Ahh well, Id better pluck up courage and tell the rightful owner. :( |
