6 servers were decomissioned, Iwas able to only get the disks, RAM, CPUs and Network Card.

The total of this is : 88 x 8TB SAS disks 44 x 16GB RAM sticks (half 2133, half 2400) 6 x v3 Xeon e3 2630 6 x v4 Xeon e5 2640 3 x 10 GB PCIe dual port cards 12 x 1U heatsink

I’m really lucky to have all of these, even if I don’t have a use for all of that for now (except some of the disks)

EDIT: Forgot to mention: All of this for free, I work in a datacenter!

    With 88 disks, some RAID 5 I think I’m going to be okey if one of them fails! (I also have a backup server)

          Hard to tell if this is a proposal to fight over hardware or an offer for free stuff.

          I choose to believe the former because it makes me chuckle more.

          Where are you located? I’m in need of some new backup drives and would be happy to pay a reasonable price + shipping if you’re interested.

            I’m in France, however I’ll not sell them immediately, maybe you could check serverpartsdeals to get some cheap refurbished drives

              I happen to be in France this summer :P

              But I should probably get my backup server set up before that…
              Hope you have fun with those drives!
