Looking for a server to host file storage and other services.
Quick eBay and b00m. A Dell T130 with 12TB SAS and 16GB RAM for £50. I’ll be honest I thought it was a scam.
4 x 1TB SAS 4 x 2TB SAS
I have no one else to tell about my excitement. This is now setup with a 2 x gigabit connections to my hom network.
Just eBayed another 12TB in SAS drives and could easily get them for £80.
used SAS drives on eBay are also pretty cheap. I picked up 4 6TB SAS drives for like $40US/each a few years ago. I just now have one starting to fail but it as 2400+ hours on it. Oh well.
