Record of some of the computer tech I deal with so that it's documented at least somewhere.

One Countdown of Many

I'm auditing my equipment.

First out the box is a Compaq Proliant DL580
2 x Compaq 9Gb 10krpm UW3 SCSI drives
2 x Smart Array 5300 controller - 171383-001 with 64Mb RAM
4 drive caddies
8 x 128Mb PC100 RAM
2 x XEON III CPUs
4 CPU caddies
2 x psu DPS-450BB / ESP104
Slimline CD Rom
Floppy drive
2 U case

Doesn't boot. The power LED flashes on and off - I've had all the bits in and out - nada

PSUs light up green, 7 segment inside reads 00, 0111000 (top first) internal orange leds

back plane has one green led (left) on, theres one next to it unlit


If I press the PCI switches nothing lights up

one down, 20+ to go!
