One HP DL360 Gen9, 12 cores.
Three HP DL360e Gen8, 12 cores each.
One Raloy rack console.
One Omniview PRO3 KVM USB
Got the DL360e Gen8 yesterday at a good price, $209. Might get two more!! This server is doing the llRMega at about two hours per work unit . It's the one at the far bottom of the pic.
Update:
Got the two other Dl360e Gen8 servers. Updated picture. Awaiting two 2.5 Hard Drives. Tried Ubuntu, but I still find it too hard to work with. Installed a 16gb pen drive inside of each server to boost a bit Windows when I install it.
UPDATE 6-28-2016
All three Dl360e gen8 are working now. Installed two Toshiba drives and with a little BIOS tweak got it to work. Latter on might get two used HP 2.5 HDD just to avoid the hassle. Got it working with Windows 2012 Server. Doing a mixture of Primegrid work units.
Will be installing some gpu's with usb risers to boost the performance on work units. Might stick with Nvidia because that way I can do cpu and gpu work units. The newer AMD gpu's are better BUT you need to create a app_info.xml file to make them do work. Not going that route. Will be looking for cheap Nvidia or older but good AMD gpu's. I'll keep you posted with some pictures.
