Hello, I've a Dell Poweredge 2410 cabinet and I'm facing some issues installing the roof top panel. I would like check how can I install/retain the roof top. Manuals don't refer for this. I suppose that these latches are responsible for retaining but I don't see where/how to fix them...

Hello, I'm getting a DL160 G6 + P800 controller with external SAS ports. Server supports SFF HDDs that I'll fill with small SSDs and some 72 or 146GB 10k SAS drives for VM running. For cold storage I was planing to get one MSA50 or MSA70 for LFF SATA drives however they support only 1.5G...

Price drop to 150£ :)

Hello, Put this one for sale on eBay yesterday. Supermicro 5016T-TB L5520 1U Server Max 24GB RAM | eBay It's a single socket LGA1366. It's overpriced to deal with best offer. Will ship worldwide. Thanks!

With the same ~US$300 can I expect some motherboard/CPU combo brand new from Intel or AMD?

Workload is minimal. I found HP Z600 workstation for 219€ (No CPU/RAM/HDDs). Would be a good choice for virtualization?

Maybe some AMD build.

Good morning, I'm looking for 2 Hosts for Hyper-V (or ESX) for lab purposes. In the past I had two DL160 G6 servers however they are noisy and I really don't need two sockets per host. Could you advise me some cheap configs in ATX format or similar? Thanks
