I have an Intel SC5300AF2 server that I have decided to sell. It is pretty serious overkill for my home network (Heh), and I've decided I can get by with a lot less power.
The server consists of:
From what I can see, the SC5300AF2 barebones starts around $1600 new. BUT! That only includes a single power supply and none of the other goodies that mine has. So... How much is it worth?
I just went to PCConnection and priced out the components that I have in this machine. This box would retail for just over $3200 USD. So, I will set my asking price at $2500 OBO. I am open to any reasonable offers, partial trade offers, etc. Remember though, this thing weighs 100lbs, so shipping will be expensive (and at buyer's expense).
If someone sweet-talks me enough, I may even be convinced to part with the pair of 3.8ghz Xeons that I have in the box right now. I did type 3.8ghz on purpose. But that would have to be a REALLY nice offer![Wink ;) ;)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)

The server consists of:
- Intel SE7520AF2 Motherboard
PCIe, PCI-X (hot-plug), SATA RAID, U320 SCSI, etc, etc. Sweet board! - Intel SC5300LX Server Chassis
What can I say? It's big, has hot-swap, redundant fans and passive (ducted) cooling for a pair of Nocona Xeons. - 6 drive hot-swap SCSI bays
- 4 drive hot-swap SCSI bays (Intel # AXX4SCSIDB)
It came with the 6 drive cage, I added the 4 drive cage for a total of TEN hot-swap SCSI drives. - Redundant (1+1) 730w Power Supplies (Intel # FXX730WPSU)
It came with a single 730w PSU, I added the second. - Intel RAID activation key (Intel # AXXRAKU42E)
Adds RAID 5, 10 and 50 to the LSI U320 onboard SCSI controller. - Intel Portable Cache Module (Intel # AXXRPCM1)
Adds 128mb of battery backed cache to the aforementioned SCSI RAID. - Intel Local Control Panel (Intel # AXXLCPPED)
Cool little management/monitoring LCD thingy. - Intel Management Module - Advanced Edition
Think "remote management" controller. - *TEN* Hitachi Ultrastar 08K0392
What good are ten hot-swap SCSI bays without ten 80pin, U320, 10,000rpm SCSI drives? All less than 5 months old, all have warranty through 2007. - NEC 16x DVD-ROM (Black)
- NEC Floppy Drive (Black)
