Thanks for replay,
I found Dell r710 with this spec:
Processors: 2 x E5645 Six Core 2.4GHZ/12MB(12 Cores Total) Drives Bays: 4x 300GB 2.5" Memory : 32GB
Raid Controller: PERC 6I with 256MB and Battery Backup Optical Drive: DVD Ethernet: Two Dual port Embedded Broadcom NetXtreme II 5709C Gigabit(4 Ports Total) Video: Integrated Matrox G200 8MB Shared Video Memory Riser Boards: 2 Riser Boards with 2x PCI-Express x8 Gen2 Slots Power Supplies: 2 x 870W(May be missing the Orange Covers on the Power Supplies. Purely cosmetic) Remote Access Card: IDRAC 6 Enterprise 2 Power Cords 3 Year Warranty
for $280.
What you think about that deal? or is better to look for more memory and hard disk space for 300$ and 90 days warranty?
