[LUG] Old Server and Disks - free to a good home

[Gordon Henderson <gordon+dcglug@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Or even a bad one!

I have a rather old server box - it's 6-U and made from heavy gauge steel. 
It's a sort of double decker affair with room for 4 drives at the bottom 
and more on top. There are 2 x 4GB IDE drives in it. There are also 4 x 
18GB half height 3.5" SCSI drives. Theres don't have proper mountings.

The (Asus) motherboard is an Intel Xeon, dual processor 500MHz. I think 
there is 512MB of RAM on-board. It's also dual PSU.

This is the case:

Additionally, I have an external SCSI array - 8 x 18GB drives arranged as 
2 chains of 4 drives each. (They're half height 3'5" jobbies). It's all in 
a 4-U case with dual PSUs. Heavy steel again and the drives are vertically 
mounted in swappable caddys.

It was another Acme unit, but I don't think they do them anymore.

I can install Debian on it & demonstrate it running if anyone cares...

It's a good room heater, but a bit noisy...

Ps. Yes, Acme - don't laugh... Well, do laugh, but they've been 
importing/making PC/Server cases since I first started to use them - in 
the mid 90's! Very solid kit and you can still buy the replacement PSUs 
for them.
