With it being 2U you can then pop out the motherboard and go with anything more modern you wanted in terms of the motherboard/cpu/ram.

$1200 all in would certainly get you a nice system with that as the base.

Hi all.

I have access to quite a few laptop HD's (10 to 15 of them at least), and thought that might make a neat test box that might have some good IO speed.

Needs to be cheap though, so linux with software raid, rack mount preferred but not required.

Anyone have any experience with anything like that?  $2K might be possible, painful, but possible.

Suggestions?

Thanks for your time,

-Andy
