intel stock cooler says it all.
A single spinning disk visible, no redundancy
This doesn't even look like it would cut it as a desktop for any remotely intensive work, let alone as a server
Edit: that might be the corner of a second disk down there
Edit 2: okay read down the article and this is 16 crappy computers which is marginally better
There's no way that PSU is even worth the $70 the article says is normal, someone got fleeced
Did they forget a zero in that percentage?
Probably for the VMware license :P
Not unlike the $400,000,000 that was allocated to build the tent city known as Alligator Auschwitz.
