I'm looking for:
-1U (or 2U if needbe) server with Dual Xeon L5420 or single E3, 24-32GB ECC, and 4 SATA-II/III 3.5" drive bays. Hardware RAID w/BBU a plus but not required. IPMI would be a plus not required. Needs Gigabit Ethernet, and support for Virtualization.
-1U Atom dual core (with HT preferred) server with 4GB Ram and space for 1-2 SSDs. I like the short Supermicro ones but I'm not all that picky. With sliding rack rails would be a plus!
-4x SATA 3.5" WD RE3/4 series HDD used with no bad sectors and passing SMART data and otherwise completely functional. All need to be idential or at least same model, series, cache, interface speed, as they will be used in RAID! No desktop drives.
-4x 120(128) - 240(256)GB SSD. All 4 don't need to be the same. Just same pairs. (Need two pairs of drives, one is going in the above Atom server and one going into another server).
I want stuff that works fine, just as cheap as possible. I am probably going to buy the drives new but if I get a good offer on here, maybe a package offer, I could get them used. The servers should be reasonable quiet - they are going in an office that I will be in too so I can't have too much noise. But they won't be in a bedroom either so they don't have to be completely silent.
Thanks!
