If you're buying them brand-new, they can be pricey. However, I've had great luck over the years finding high-end SuperMicro servers on eBay, often with four hexacore or octacore Xeon CPUs, for $100 to $200, and all I needed to add to them were one or two pairs of hard drives that I configured as RAID1. The largest RAM config in a system I actually purchased was 48 GB, but I could probably have found servers with significantly more RAM for far less than $5K. -- John Abreau / Executive Director, Boston Linux & Unix Email j...@blu.org / WWW http://www.abreau.net / PGP-Key-ID 0x920063C6 PGP-Key-Fingerprint A5AD 6BE1 FEFE 8E4F 5C23 C2D0 E885 E17C 9200 63C6 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@driftwood.blu.org https://driftwood.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
