Vintage Server - Free to Good Home

Before I chuck this machine on my recycle pallet, I wanted to see if anyone would like to give it a good home. It is 18 years old :scream: but still works like a champ! Most recently I pulled it out of the depths of the server closet after a couple years nap, threw a fresh copy of WS2012 R2 on it and used it as a test rig for VEEAM Backup for a little over a month (which I was happy with and am moving forward with on much newer hardware). It’s a little slow trying to run stuff it wasn’t meant to…, but it chugged right along.

Drives are wiped and ready to rumble.

Specs as best I remember:

  • PowerEdge 1800 tower
  • Dual Xeon 3.0 GHz processors
  • 6 GB memory
  • Mirrored pair, 150GB drives
  • 4 available drive bays
  • SATA RAID controller
  • CD-ROM (works)
  • Ancient SCSI tape drive (status unknown)
  • SCSI adapter does work
  • 1.44 MB Floppy for giggles
  • Dual power supplies, plus one spare
