    So my mums making me tidy up. Here's where to be to get some bargains...
    Think of something about 5 years old and i probably have it. So far i've dug up:
    2x 18.2gig fujitsu SCSI drives
    Sony STD9000 tape streamer
    Scsi CDROM
    dual p2 motherboard (With scsi raid)
    double sided server case

    If anyone would like anything i'm taking offers of £1 and up...

    double sided server case? pics?
  3.  # 3
    I'll get some when i'm home. It's basically a double width case divided in two with a mobo mount in one side and a shitton of room in the other for PSU's and drives in the other.

    ahh, ok then, I was hoping it could host 2 ATX boards and then some. I'm always looking for a good, cheap, double sided case so I can throw some old parts in it :D

    um. Well it could hold another atx board but all the ports would face inwards...

    I'd be interested in the SCSI boards.

    I've an old IBM Intellistation that I currently use as a webserver that always needs more hard drive space.

    Don't spose you have a PIII 500 floating about as well ?

    Oh and some 512mb dimms.

    Um, i'm pretty sure i have a p3 lying around somewhere, whether its a 500 or not (or infact whether it works) i'm not sure. I'll see if i can dig it out.

    As for the 512meg dimms, what speed? I have a ton of random ram (how coincidental) laying around but the older stuff likely isnt 512meg and the newer stuff i dont really wanna be giving away.

    The IBM takes 100mhz memory. They don't have to be 512mb, just the bigger the better.

    I meant SCSI discs not boards btw.

    FYI, the disks are Fujitsu MAA3182SP's if you'd like to check theyre the right type or whatever. I've never used scsi so i dont have much knowledge about it.

    As a pointer, all the parts listed made up an entire working system, although the mobo only had one CPU fitted and i havent as yet managed to get a pair running (though i see no reason they shouldnt) I got the system free from school and planned to setup a nix server or something to muck around with on it but i'm just too lazy and it's taking up way too much room. Perhaps i'll get a mini atx box to do the same job.

    Turns out i have 2 PC100 256meg DIMMs on my sofa. Not quite sure where they came from. I have a crazy amount of junk to say i didnt pay for any of it. I dont think.. Hmmmm.

    And i have some pics of it all but for some reason my phone doesnt want to connect as an external drive..so...hmmm...

    Is the mboard a Supermicro ?

    I once built a 2x PIII 800 system using what sounds like a similar board.

    The SCSI drives should be OK. The IBM has 2 different connectors and I have a couple of adaptors floating about somewhere.

    I cant find any ID on the board but i'm reasonably sure its an intel board. I'll have a better look later and google the random codes i find on it to see if i can come up with anything.

    Which country are you in, btw?

    I have an old P120 hanging around somewhere I think. Vintage stuff.

    Maybe NASA will want it?
