I sell IBM 305 servers and find that many people have the same questions about what will fit into them and how they work. This video just shows the IBM 305 off a little to help people understand the 1U rackmount server.

  • What is the maximum processor this server can take?

  • I am thinking that certain models can goto a 3.06 GHz P4. I have a customer who bought a bunch and upgraded them and said that they work well with the upgrade.

  • Hi all!!!

    I'd have the chance to buy a 305: i'd like to know if it is loud as the other rack servers or not...i'd use it as web server in my house...

  • Hello. There was a time when we didn't want to spend $20K to replace all desktops in the Atlanta office. So, we put on under everyone's desk just powered but not doing anything for a few weeks. People were fine with it and we moved forward. I created an XP image and we used 50 of them as workstations for a year or more. Mounted under the desk, no one heard or cared. If you get a bad fan, however, that's a different story.

  • so if i buy one of ebay and put it in will it work

  • Yes, I provisioned them with XP PRO SP2 and then SYSPREP'd them. They work well.

see all

  • I like to see about getting some for content/web servers still selling them?

  • @pocketbikefreak666 Probably an 8MB ATI Rage.

  • How mouch MB have the onboard video card?

  • Thanks to reply! I'd use it in the same desk i work with other people, so i don't want it to be loud as the "usual" rack servers we have in the "server room", would be impossible to work with!! :o)

  • why would you use wireless with a server.

  • I have this same server. Can I install a wireless nic into the left pci port beings it full height. My wireless nic is for a desktop tho will it fit?
