What you’re seeing are 16 Dell PowerEdge servers:

2x R230

5x R320

1x R330

2x R410

4x R420

1x R520

1x R710

(I’ve made a spreadsheet here with the specs if you are interested)

I bought them for stupid cheap with rack rails and some accessories and about 100 HDDs (rather small sizes 160-500GB), intending to sell most of them for profit, but I’ve been wondering if there is anything cool I can do with them.

I already have R720xd (for storage) and R430 in my 42U rack which I’m slowly filling up but I’m willing to change some things.

So my question is which ones should I sell and which should I keep? Maybe some cool cluster? What are your ideas?

PS: electricity cost is not an issue for me

Also here is my rack:
