As an alternate option I have several HP dl380 g7's that are maybe a year old and still under warranty I could provide. They have licensed ILO on them as well and I could provide some hot spare drives for them. They're also massively over speced for this use (quad core processors, 8-12GB of memory, 4 x 15k drives. We've had much better luck with the HP hardware with regard to firmware stability in that generation range than the dell hardware we run for what it's worth. Given we only run maybe a thousand servers but the sample size seems large enough to bare that out.

Sure! I think that would be an excellent upgrade to newer gear than
what we have now. Of course, it is total overkill for what it needs,
but then again just about anything enterprise hardware is.

When the R805 is ready, I could swing out and do up this one at 511, probably
easier than hauling it back and forth, even I'm only 8 blocks away.
