Re: [PLUG] For Sale: IBM x3650 M2 Server

Ugh, I just bought some new (used) servers from Craigslist yesterday. That being said, CL has been kinda hit or miss with used server hardware. While there are some OK posts, there just isn't a lot of traffic on there imho. However, you should post it on https://www.reddit.com/r/homelabsales/ which usually has a few PA/NJ posts every week. It's a very active subreddit and people have been very nice around sales.

Good luck!

I'm just going to say that back in the day this was my server of choice - I have neither time, money, nor use for it so I'll have to pass.

I am going to put this on Craig's List, but thought I'd offer it to a better home here.

I've acquired an old IBM x3650 M2 server in pretty good shape.

24 GBytes RAM

Dual Xeon Processors (8 cores)

Hardware RAID with 2) 73 GByte and 5) 300 GByte disks (1.6 TBytes total)

It booted Gentoo and have loaded Debian on it.

I was going to use this as a fancy Gentoo desktop, but it's just too slow booting, too big, too noisy, and too weird to replace my normal desktop.

Was going to ask $250 on Craig's List.

I live in West Grove, PA (west of Kennett Square).

Anybody interested?
