Server pick up from yesterday. SATA Beast.
pls show pics of the board etc too.
DAYUMMM.. That is one heavy somebiscuit!
Nice Score!
I will post pics when it comes apart. Definitely heavy. Has (42) 500GB Hard Drives in it.
42: The answer to everything in the Universe.
42X Roughly $25-$30 each if they all test good = $1050 to $1260.
He*ls to the YES! Wicked Score!
What is the Make and Model of this thing? Can't say I've EVER seen something like this!
Any chance of it being sold as is for even more money?
Are you sure it is a server and not a hard drive array?Quote:

Nexsan Satabeast hard drive storage it is. There is damage to the power supplies where power plugd in. Nothing major damaged & probably still works. Just saw a lot of them on eBay with hardly any sold.
xyz: Even at 42X Roughly $25-$30 each if they all test good = $1050 to $1260.
Still a great day!
...... unless you paid $1000 for it.
>:)
I know. Definitely a good score. No complaints from me. It was free or almost free.
Dang! What a score! I would love to get my hands on something like that. Right now, I am actually trying to build a NAS that incorporates devices like that, for no real reason. Just to say I have one. I have so many HDDs, that I figure why not. I'm just waiting on the right price for the right unit. If I got that, I'd fix that PSU unit and use it for my own goods. But that's just me. :)
With 21TB you could store a LIBRARY of Music and Movies eh?Quote:
