Give me more POWAAHHH!
I have been home the last week or so, which is rare with my job. So let's spend some cash on a lab upgrade. My current lab just has a small 16 Port Netgear managed switch, a couple older AMD boxes cobbled together from leftover parts. One is a FreeNAS box with probably 3-4TB usable storage 16GB RAM and an A6-3650 AMD CPU, the other is an 8 core FX-8320 based AMD box with 24GB of RAM, running ESXi 5.5. I often run out of RAM and network ports while testing things for work such as multiple SQL clusters using AOA for replication etc. Even now in the screenshot with very little running I am using 19GB of RAM. Divorce does have one benefit no permission required!!. 1. Cisco 3650G - 48 Port switch with room for 4 SFPs including 10Gb I paid 170 with free shipping but there are other options - https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2334524.m570.l1313.TR1.TRC0.A0.H0.Xcisco+3560g+48ps.TRS0&_nkw=cisco+3560g+48ps&_sacat=0&LH_TitleDesc=0&_o
