I need three of these at $70 apiece.

Fuck.

Edit: explanation: I want to move my server out of the beige box it’s in currently to something a little better suited to the task, so I figured I’d put it all in the old server case on a newer board that I know can stay cool. Unfortunately, the newer board is a SCSI board, and all of my drives are IDE. Alright.. so I figured I’d take apart the box with the blown processor, switch my processor out and stick the drives in, right? It’s even an IDE board. Well.. I don’t have memory for that box x.x (different type, dunno what kind).

Sigh.

This might mean consolidating my computers somehow. I’ll have to see.

EditEdit: It has come to my attention that I likely only need a new IDE board that’ll fit this case. Failing that, new RAM.
