@StuffJason437 Жыл бұрын

Nowadays, those hard drives are completely obsolete in data centres, as everyone moved over to Solid State nonvolatile memory express, that takes advantage of the PCI slot card, instead of the SATA or Scsi. Because, hard drives are so cheap even enterprise 1s many homelabs will have 'em and plenty of 'em but not data centre's. Those HP Proliant DL380p g7 2U actually sell pretty well online surprisingly in 2023, even those HP power supplies are cross-compatible with newer generations. If you find any blanks check as many sell decently well. You may see a server with 1TB of storage and think "Oh hey, that's not much today", but your forgetting that's 1TB of redundant storage that's capable of surviving drive failure's and continue onwards on the remaining drives due to it being a raid array. Servers are designed with redundancy and reliability in mind so storage capacity isn't important.

Have you considered listing hard drives like those on local marketplaces after securely erasing them? Surely you can get at least a bit more than scrap value for them that way, assuming they don't contain anything sensitive.

@r0bo11 Жыл бұрын

most likely costs more in electricity to parse and secure erase a 1TB drive than it's own scrap value. Takes anywhere between 2-8 hours for a DBAN DoD erase with multiple parses. Don't think Ben's got the time or electricity costs covered to do that. Victoria is one of the worst electricity suppliers in Australia when it comes to costs.

Exactly what I was thinking, it’s super wasteful too because you’re scrapping something that often still has plenty of life

Also just in general very often he scraps stuff that has significantly more value, not only fiscally but in application too. Those “smart cards” I’m pretty sure we’re ssds and those still have plenty of use and he just throws them in a pile where he probably gets a dollar for them (not sure scrap prices)

@jamescollins6085 Жыл бұрын
