OK, so what is in the basement rack now? Here goes:
Server # 1:
This machine is an old Solid Modeling workstation from Intergraph. Real old, probably 1998 or so.
- Dual Pentium II 333 MHz processors
- 256 mb RAM
- One internal 8gb SCSI system drive
- Four internal 160 gb IDE data drives
- Windows 2003 Server, free license from a launch event
Server #2:
This machine is an old Gateway server machine. It was a faithful Exchange server for years...
- Pentium III 600 MHz Processor
- 512 mb RAM
- Three 9 gb and one 18 gb internal SCSI hard drives
- Two 160 gb and three 400 gb external USB 2.0 Hard Drives
- Windows 2003 Server, free license from a launch event
I know... pretty pathetic. Neither one of them even has a video card that I can get full resolution out of, but who cares, they are servers! I don't need a fancy graphics card!
At my quick count, that is 2,204 gb, or 2.14 tb. But most of Server one is empty... server two was supposed to replace server one a while ago, but I never migrated all of the home automation programs (Caller ID tracking, mostly) off of it.
In the next post, I will detail the items that I have ordered from NewEgg for my new Windows Home Server, and maybe a little about why I bought what I bought. I did a lot of research, and I can't wait for the stuff to arrive.
