Rackmounted 4x4 drives -> please advise

art-informa.pl · April 23, 2017

Hi Community.

I'am looking curently for server in a budget around 400 EUR suitable for unRaid for 12 - 20 Drives (optimally 16)

I have plenty of 2TB Drives, so what is important to me is that the device originates from Poland or Germany (shipping costs low).

Found on Ebay:

Is it any good ?

Some other hints in this price range?

Kind'a worried about the controler in that server ->

CPU 1 Intel Xeon E5335, 4x 2.00GHz, 8MB Cache, FSB1333

CPU 2 Intel Xeon E5335, 4x 2.00GHz, 8MB Cache, FSB1333

HDD 16x HDD Einschübe, SAS/SATA Backplane

Controller 3Ware 9650SE-16ML SATA II RAID Controller, PCI-E, 16port, inkl. BBU

Motherboard Supermicro X7DBE inkl. SIMLP-B (für Remoteverbindung)

RAM 16GB ECC DDR2 FB-Dimm

Anschlüsse extern 3x USB 2.0, 2x Seriell, 1x Paralell, 1x VGA, 2x GLAN, 2x PS/2, 1x Management LAN

Steckplätze intern 8x DDR2 ECC, 3x PCI-X, 3x PCI-E

Best Regards

Chris.
