I got this old server and I always like to fiddle with old hardware, so I took a lot of pictures and shared them on my blog with some explaination!
Feedback always appreciated ^^
Nice teardown! I liked the gif inclusion
Thanks ! this is the first time I include GIF in my blog, glad it was worth it ! :)
Nice post. Recognisable too. I have an old server from work at home, but came to the same conclusion: with that power consumption it’s no fun running it 24/7 at home.
Yeah, power consumption are never the strong suit of rack mounted servers…
Power consumption is the 2nd thing i look for in my IT devices (first is “do I need internet/cloud services to run it” … Yes is an absolut disqualifier)
Pretty interesting and always impressive what technical marvels humans have creates. This is a rare glimpse into such a machine from the past.
Thanks ! yeah i’m often astonished of how servers like these are made of !
