Hello,

I mailed Mitch a few weeks back about this, and he suggested I send it to the mailing list instead, so here I am.

I have 6 x ODROID-M1 ARM64 Single Board Computers, each with 8GB RAM + HDD bracket + PSU (pictures attached). They were part of a failed experiment building a Kubernetes cluster as a file server, but it turns out the software I wanted to use doesn't ship ARM64 binaries. I also have 3 x 512GB Samsung M.2 drives, but sadly not 6.

I also have a 1RU Dell PowerEdge R640 8-Bay Server - 2x Intel Xeon Gold 5518 Dodeca-Core CPU, 256GB RAM with 2 x 250GB SSD SATA 2.5-inch.

It's second hand, but still under warranty with Recompute (3 year warranty started in 2024-04).

If anyone's interested in some of these, I'd be happy to drop them by the Hackspace.

All the best,
Alec

I'm quite interested in both of them- mostly the ODROID-M1.

The Dell is more challenging to find good uses for- it's power hungry, loud and relatively slow. But I can't pass up good compute! I'm sure I'll find use for it! But if anyone has a better use for it, they are welcome to it.

Thanks,
Jenna

I'll happily give you the ODROID's! I can drop them at the Hackspace tomorrow, I'll leave them with Mitch or whoever is there.

Hey Jenna, just checking if you wanted just one of the Odroids or all 6 of them?

All of them if that's ok? But again if someone else wants one or more  I'm totally happy to share. 

Thanks you!
Jenna
