The server at its current place in the basement

- The server is a 2006 Dell PowerEdge [whatever number goes here] featuring the 2.66 GHz socket 771 equivalent of some - Intel Core 2 Quad which was considered powerful back then (I guess?). Memory wise, the system has to offer the incredible - amount of four GiB ECC DDR2 RAM which do not quite fulfill the performance and capacity requirements of - most real world applications today but are plenty to host some two or three files on a web server.
- Basically, that thing is *s l o w* but more than enough for my private internet connection. - Guess what, there might have been a reason why it was thrown out by its previous owners.
- As for storage, the server came with three enterprise grade Dell branded Western Digitals (one of which since died) and I threw - in the SSD I pulled from my old laptop as a boot disk. Another laptop hard drive was given to me by a friend but there are - no free S-ATA connectors left. [If someone at our school wants to donate their old drive controller expansion card, feel - free to approach me or one of my team mates. You’ll be the hero of the week and you will be given credit here.]
- Oh, btw: It is worth mentioning the fan. Yes, only one fan (plus the one in the power supply). Before the server was moved - to the basement it was the loudest device in the kitchen, easily capable of exceeding the noise level of my 15 year old - fridge twice. + The server is a 2006 Dell PowerEdge [whatever number goes here] featuring the 2.66 GHz socket 771 equivalent of some + Intel Core 2 Quad which was considered powerful back then (I guess?).

- Okay. That should have given you a rough overview of the hardware. Now, let’s talk software.
- We currently run Ubuntu Server with a custom installation capable of doing GUI stuff as well but we rarely use that. - The best use I found so far is to access internal status web pages via OpenSSH with X forwarding and Firefox.
- The server came with an installation of Windowze Server 2003 but we had no login credentials and who uses Microsoft - products anyways? [BTW: The drives were filled with personal data of the employees. To all enterprises: PleAze WIPe - THe DaTa Off All SERvERS YOU EVeR THrow OUt. You do not want to be in the place former NCIX employees found themselves in - a few years ago.]
- Apart from that, there is not much to say here except for the fact that Ubuntu has become worse over the time I used it and - I’d not choose it again. It is just what I was (and still am) most familiar with. + Okay. That should have given you a rough overview of the hardware. Now, let’s talk software.
