The used bladecenter server that was installed yesterday is making a lot of noise. I am thinking that the fact that we only paid about a hundred dollars for it, may have something to do with it. I really trusted the guy that was in the alley with all of the servers in his trunk. He was wearing a suit and told me that he had just closed his office and was trying to sell everything quick and cheap.

I offered him the hundred dollars and he took it. I called my brother in law to install it into my office and he did it overnight. He did say that it may not last long, but I figured that for a hundred dollars, it might not last for years, but a few months would be good.

I had been looking for a used server anyway, but the one that I was going to order was a used iseries server that I had found online for a few thousand dollars. So when I got the used bladecenter, I thought that I could put off buying the used iseries server for now.

By the sounds that the server was making, I figured that I best just get online and order the used iseries so that when the bladecenter decided to go, I would have a replacement on hand.
