My dumbass was gonna strip it for parts.
Curious what you industrious folks would do with it?
Similar except 4x2 TB https://www.ebay.com/itm/316549741700
Inb4 put Linux on it
Edit: well it booted earlier and now it doesn’t. 😵

I agree with the advice of finding out how much electricity it will consume. When you step to this level, power consumption becomes a reality. Just looking at specs and doing some swag, it’s probably going to cost anywhere from $15 to $25 +/- USD monthly. A $500 entry fee seems a little rich for my blood. Second, you’re going to have to put that thing in a closet. Those fans are loud. Other than that, rock on bro! Git sum!
Another worth while consideration is heat generation. That takes more power to offset that too. During the winter maybe it wont be so bad, but it can be brutal in the summer.
Indeed. I put my rack in the closet. Cut in a 500 cfm inline exhaust fan to the attic. Then I wired it to a thermostat. That way it’s not constantly sucking 500 cfm of AC into the attic in the summer and heat in the winter. Then sound bat and insulation to keep the drone of the fans to zero with the door closed. Seems to work nicely. But yeah, when you step up to enterprise equipment and legacy at that, associated cost are worth considering.
