I just picked up this PE6650 off fleabay for $154.50! Picked it up locally–it was 5min from my house so it was quite the steal if I do say so myself. I’m prepping this for colo in a new data center down the street from where I work.
PE6650
C-19 Plug
20A Edison
Onto the specs!
- Quad 2.2ghz Xeons
- 16GB of ram
- Two Onboard Gigabit NICs
- 900W power consumption–Requires C19 power cords–those 1000W whips that plug into 20amp Edison outlets, this made it a pain to use at the house, my washing machine and my APC SmartUPS 3000 are the only outlets I have to plug this into, the hooking it upto the SmartUPS tripped the breaker about a dozen times until I load balanced equipment between the two UPSs in the rack
I have rails on order and a DRACIII card, thinking about getting four 3.0ghz xeons for it…I’ll update some photos when I get it colo’d.
