I have officially collected too many machines to keep around and need to get rid of my (previously used) onsite server.
EDIT: I will trade this setup for a high end/name brand external harddrive enclosure with IDE interface.
I used this running 2 virtual machines, one with OpenBSD for a router/firewall, one with FreeBSD for a file server.
Everything below for $35 + shipping
Pentium 3 server bundle consists of:
Tyan Thunder LE-T (S2518UGN) Motherboard featuring:
Dual Pentium 3 1Ghz Socket 370 CPUs
Dual Alpha heatsinks with 60mm fans (NOTE: These are standard height and can not be used in a 1u case). The fans have had the power and ground wires detached from the motherboard connector in order to run them at 7v for nearly silent operation.
4 512MB ECC PC133 DIMMS; Cant recall manufacturers off hand (I believe 1 set is Crucial and 1 set is Kingston); 2 sets of 512MB DIMM pairs, each pair has a different manufacturer. RAM never failed and passed memtest for 72 hours before the server was decommissioned.
