Parts Exchange

[PS2pcGAMER]

I am not sure if this is a good idea or not, but here goes. Basically people could request parts that they need to complete rigs for use in DC projects. People could also offer spare parts that they no longer have a use for. The idea is to save people some money and help expand their farms. I guess this would most benefit the smaller farmers, but it really works for anyone. Just to be clear, the parts traded aren't meant for your main rig, only DC rigs.

Right now I have a few extra things that I don't really need. IB was nice enough to donate them to me awhile back.
*2 x 256MB PC2100 ECC RAM. Some non-ecc chipsets may still support it. One of my rigs will take ECC RAM and the other won't.
*4 Port Hub

I could really use at least 2-3 small hard drives. Anything in the 5-10GB range would be perfect. I've looked on ebay, but they all charge an arm and a leg for shipping.

Hadn't thought about pricewatch. Thanks for the reminder.


The one you linked me to was SCSI though. I'll check pricewatch for regular IDE drives now.

Ouch, 14 drives.

Yeah, I have been thinking about just getting big drives as the price difference is not that big. I also have a friend who might end up giving me a few drives for free.
