I have a Dell Poweredge server I need to sell. I planned to use it in my home network but I'm going to Afghanistan soon and will not make use of it.
The server only has about 4 days total operation time. I am the registered owner of the server with Dell, and the warranty still has almost the full 3 years remaining. The warranty would come with the server, as I would transfer ownership to a buyer.
I don't have the full specs with me but can provide them upon request, just wanted to get a feeler out there on tomshardware if there's anyone local who's interested.
It's configured as a database file server, with extremely fast hard drives in a raid5 array:
Intel Xeon processor (2ghz? I would have to look it up to be sure)
5 x 75gb 15,000RPM SAS (serial attached SCSI) hard drives in RAID5
200/400gb tape backup drive
redundant power supplies
dual NICs
4gb DDR2 RAM (4x1gb I believe, there are 8 slots on the motherboard if I remember correctly)
I'm near Toronto, Ontario, Canada and I will not be able to ship the server (the original box was damaged in shipping). There is some very minor cosmetic damage to the case, which is why I got it when written off by the company because it was not resellable.
happy to answer any questions, send me a PM or reply here either is fine. If you spec out this server on Dell's website with the same components it reaches around $7,000 USD. I am looking for nothing anywhere near that, I need to sell it quickly. If you can pick it up in the next week I'll sell it for $3,000 firm.
