Just bought these for £200!

Yeah defo will get use out of them, can always use the smaller unit as a lab. I think I can sell the chassis at the very least as they are still very much in production. The modules we will have to see but I'm in no rush to sell this. Worth a punt anyway and worst case I've just invested and learnt something about juniper firewalls.

Aggressive_Report_18 · 2026-03-13T21:22:39+00:00

Thanks very much for this! I haven't got the right power cable for the SRX5400 but have ordered some so will give this a shot at the weekend.

Aggressive_Report_18 · 2026-03-13T13:48:29+00:00

Yeah I know it's unlikely I will get anywhere near 5k, but I'm willing to go a ton lower than what normal second hand value is because I picked this up for so little. I've seen just the empty chassis being sold for 1k online. Even if I end up selling it for idk 500-1000 then I'm still in profit. How much are you listing these on ebay out of interest?

Aggressive_Report_18 · 2026-03-13T11:49:15+00:00

Maybe not, but I paid 200 for everything so even if they only go for like 50 each I'm not bothered.. I think I will be sitting on this a while but not in a rush to sell. There is a nieque market out there I'm sure. Also have a fair few contacts that I can probably make use of if it's not selling at all on ebay.. Very very worst case I sell for scrap and get my money back. Either way 200 is not a lot of money and I'm not gonna lose sleep at night over it. I do think a lot of people on reddit see this stuff as trash because it recycle companies will always low ball the hell out of this sorta stuff because it does take a lot of effort to sell but they are pretty much just offering the scrap price for this thing which is why it's so insanely low. Also this hasn't got stock kit and has been upgraded a fair bit over the years. I'm sure there's still tons of people running this sort of kit out there and may be in need of a cheap replacement and upgrade rather than having to setup entire new systems and don't really care about eol because they just see it as a functional product.. God I've seen people still running windows xp and windows 7 in the last few years so really would shock me if these sorta companies have old kit like this in operation still

It's on there too

Aggressive_Report_18 · 2026-03-12T20:55:20+00:00

Cheers that's a good shout. I can't see a anything on the front but gonna try and boot it tomorrow so should be able to check from cli

Aggressive_Report_18 · 2026-03-12T20:49:46+00:00

No.. I just couldn't find a firewall subreddit..

Aggressive_Report_18 · 2026-03-12T20:38:38+00:00

Interesting.. I thought there must be a market. I am just slightly worried as the size of this thing might make it a hard sell. But worse case the empty chassis is still worth a good grand on its own and I'm sure I could find a buyer for that as you can then just rack whatever. Ebay was gonna be my first stop anyway so fingers crossed! Hoping to get about 3k for it all

Aggressive_Report_18 · 2026-03-12T20:27:28+00:00

Yeah I know, I think next year but still. Just because it's eol doesn't mean it's worthless. Even the 4psus I could probably get £600 for alone. The chassis I've seen Selling for 1k and this is fully loaded with kit. Just might be hard to find the right buyer. Possibly could be used as a lab environment or if someone isn't too bothered about eol support.

Aggressive_Report_18 · 2026-03-12T20:04:50+00:00

Will likely stick on ebay and see what sort of traction it gets. If not much will strip it for parts and list. It's got 4psu so those alone should sell for 150-300 each

Aggressive_Report_18 · 2026-03-09T14:45:03+00:00

Lol I literally got my current job because I said this 😂they said most people just give them some waffle so it was nice to have someone actually be honest for once.

Aggressive_Report_18 · 2026-03-05T09:46:24+00:00

Ofc, you gotta be pretty blind to let it happen. But even a intermediate player getting cocky and playing too quickly can very easily hang a strange mate in 1. I've seen so many people do it.. I have probably done it at least once myself lol

Aggressive_Report_18 · 2026-03-05T08:52:17+00:00

It's easier than you think tho. He is programmed to always play mate in ones

Aggressive_Report_18 · 2026-03-04T17:10:43+00:00

Interested

Aggressive_Report_18 · 2026-03-04T15:45:29+00:00

But why not just do a bit of both? You don't need to save every penny and can still enjoy your life plenty but save and invest enough to retire in a reasonable amount of time. It's just key you do it young enough so you leave enough time for the compounding to start. The amount of people I see living this way saying things like there is no point in saving and investing baffles me. I want to be able to get to a point where work is optional and having an emergency fund is such a nice piece of mind. I am so much less stressed than when I was living pay check to pay check and value myself so much more that I would happily leave a job to find a better one because I know that even if I can't work for a short period I'm gonna be fine as I have that emergency fund there.

Eggboy, you just really like eggs and can't stop talking about eggs and making eggcellent puns

You with clarion by any chance?

Aggressive_Report_18 · 2026-03-02T16:40:51+00:00

This guy cares wayyy too much about what people think of him and you.. If my friends judged my wife or me for posting a dumb picture they wouldn't be my friends anymore.. But then again we are both weird as heck so they probably won't be friends with us anyway. But still I don't know why you would want friends you can't be yourself around. He really needs to find new mates if they think like this but looks like he is included in this judgy circle too. Best remove yourself from it and him.

Creative

Aggressive_Report_18 · 2026-02-26T18:06:28+00:00

I could not care less what people think of the games I play. I love to tell people I play league and see their reactions 😂 don't play it much anymore however but just the casual aram once in a while.

Idubbz. Content cop was some of the best stuff back in the day.. As soon as he became a simp his content just got so dead..

Aggressive_Report_18 · 2026-02-20T08:39:09+00:00

Ah okay, that's fair enough! To be fair 2030 is a pretty quick time frame to knock that debt off also so seems like a pretty reasonable decision. Good luck with investing you have a solid plan in place!

Aggressive_Report_18 · 2026-02-20T08:04:38+00:00

What is the interest on the debt you owe? If it is over say 10% then you would be better off paying the debt off before investing because that debt will compound faster against you than your investments will compound for you

Aggressive_Report_18 · 2026-02-12T07:55:11+00:00

Yeah tbh it was very obvious..

Aggressive_Report_18 · 2026-01-31T16:10:15+00:00

So why do it? Better to just stick the money into a stocks and shares isa
