I've aquired the parts for a new(old) server which will consist of:
Dual Xeon 2.6ghz LV(Low Voltage)
2 gig ECC
Tyan i7500 with onboard video, nic, etc.
5 300 gig Hard Drives in RAID5 on a RocketRAID 8 port SATA controller.
1 200gig IDE HDD boot drive
I've been buying all the stuff on the cheap, and I'm looking for a PSU that will fit the bill. Requirements are powering up the system, and not exploding at any point during its operation. Oh, and an EPS connector (8 pin) would be nice.
Expansion is limited to getting another 3 HDD's, and thats about it.
I'm Canadian and I'd like to order from directcanada.com, since I can get free shipping on my order with some other stuff I'm getting but this isn't a requirement.
Anyhow, I was looking at this unit (http://www.directcanada.com/products/?sku=15240AC5438&vpn=HG2-6460P&manufacture=ZIPPY%20TECHNOLOGY), which is at the upper end of what I'd like to spend, but I can flex a little bit.
Thanks for your time.
