[cobalt-users] any market for used 3i



I may be doing it, I may can the RAQ I've been using for 3 yrs or so and putting in Windows Web edition. I need A LOT more CPU power than my 3i provides so I'm going to test a Dell 1750 with dual ZEONs, 2 gig RAM, 73gig 10K u320 drives, 1U, DVD ... for about $3800 including the OS.

I need to integrate better with our windows systems so for us it just makes sense instead of fighting the Linux(RAQ)/Windows issues; and we have deliver some Windows apps that are based on DLLs, so we are stuck there as well. And I sure as s--t knows Windows gooder than Linux/Unix.

I figure it will take me a month or so to migrate everything, at the end I have to decide if I should keep my RAQ as a backup mail server, even do some hosting on it still as the only problem we have is that we have about 400 mail customers and the drag on the system is just a little too much, I'd be happy with about 100-200 tops.

If I were to sell it, is there a market for a:
RAQ 3i
I think it has 512meg RAM, I'd have to look
(2) 30gig Maxtor hard drives (I dd from one to the other each week)
New cooling fans

THIS IS NOT AN AD - I WILL POST IT ON eBAY IF I SELL IT (sorry, want to be clear) ... if the price is too low I'd keep it, not worth giving away.

So any thoughts? Salable, too old? Value?

Thanks,
Jale
