It's showing current bid being $60. Each processor weighs 35 pounds for total 2450 plus the odd server. For $70, it'd be worth renting a trailer.
If you pass on a lot like that for that price(assuming it stays that low) you are nuts. You could spend 100.00 on a uhaul and still do very well. The sunfire server alone would cover more than half of the 70.00. I just took one apart that was well over 100 lbs. It had around 20 lbs of boards in it and over 2lbs of RAM.
With just the boards and the steel in those servers you are looking at around 500.00 scrap value. That does not include CPU's, power supplies, RAM, and probably all copper heat sinks
Sounds to me like someone jumped the gun with their ewaste recycling. Don't try to run before you walk.Quote:
