Re: [Rdo-list] Cheap, quiet hardware for a small RDO installation?

I recently did this using micro-ATX to save money over they shuttle / ITX form factor. I built around the cheapest low-wattage AMD quad-core APU I could find on Newegg with 8GB RAM on each box and slow 1tb spinning platters. I think I got down to about $340 / each for all components including PCI-e 2x1GB NICs I got second hand from a parts liquidator. If you are interested in specifics I can try to compile them after work. - Kodiak On Tue, Dec 2, 2014 at 10:39 AM, Dave Neary <dneary(a)redhat.com <mailto:dneary@redhat.com>> wrote: Hi, I'm looking for ideas of mini PCs I can use for a small RDO cloud - looking at maybe 3 shuttle PCs, each with "enough" disk (maybe 800GB total storage) and RAM (8GB per PC enough?). Also, I'm wondering if 2 NICs is reasonable to ask for. My desired price point is *low* - all 3 for under $1000 would be ideal, failing that, as close to it as possible. Anyone have recommendations for hardware that would serve this process?
