Some HCoop members are willing to donate pieces of hardware to the coop to help with our new infrastructure. These hardware pieces are outlined below.

== Dell PowerEdge 2850 ==

This is a 2U server that I bought used (actually traded for a Dell PowerEdge 2800 that I had previously). I purchased parts for it which give it the following specifications:

 * 4 GB RAM
 * 4 x 10K Seagate Cheetah SCSI drives, 73GB
 * 2 x 10K Seagate Cheetah SCSI drives, 36GB
 * 2 x 2.8 GHz processors
 * RAID kit, with battery, etc.
 * 256 MB RAID cache
 * 2 power supplies

Currently I have this machine configured with a RAID 1 set on 2 x 36 GB disks for the system partition, and a 4 disk RAID 10 set for user files.

The machine is less than 1 year old, and is still under warranty for most of the parts (some parts were purchased used, so would not be covered by the warranty from Dell). I believe that we can purchase a support contract from Dell for this machine but I will have to call them to make sure and find out more details.

I have put [[http://www.hcoop.net/~leitgebj/poweredge/|some pictures online]]. Sorry, they are large files!

= Nortel (Baystack) 380 switch =

From Shaun Empie:

It is not brand new but is working. Here is a guide that I was able to find to give anyone interested a more in depth view of it, [[http://vpit.net/es380-guide.pdf|es380 guide]].

ES380 AC Power Specs: Input current: 1.5A to 100 AC Input voltage (rms): 100 to 240 VAC at 47 to 63 Hz Power consumption: 150 W Thermal rating: 1000 BTU/hr maximum
