Anybody want a SuperMicro H8SCM motherboard with an Opteron 4280, 16GB DDR3-1600 and 1U CPU cooler?

The I/O panel is from a SuperMicro 1U case. Probably can be screwed into a regular ATX case.

This came from an old Barracuda Web App Firewall. The BIOS password has already been cleared.

The CPU is basically a lower powered AMD FX-8150 using the C32 socket. Boost speed is 3.5Ghz.

Onboard video is Matrox G200.

Has dual onboard gigabit NIC.

You will need to pay shipping.

Edit: claimed

A board and CPU from ~2011 with integrated graphics from 1998 sounded weird to me, but I googled it and now I am aware that the Matrox G200eW is a thing. It is contained within the Nuvoton BMC chip. Pretty cool. 🙂

Yep, the G200 series is used on even newer OEM servers and 3rd party server motherboards as well.

I built my NAS on a Supermicro H8DGI-F years ago and still use it to this day. It manages multiple ZFS arrays and has plenty of availability cores and memory for the job. It's not the fastest or the most energy efficient, but I have tons of spare parts and all it does is sit there. I have no reason to upgrade at all.

Anybody want any USB to serial adapters? They will be older FTDI and fake FTDI cables. They will not work in Windows 11 due to FTDI locking down the driver for Windows 11 to only work with newer version cables. They did this to lock out the use of their drivers with the fake / clones Chinese adapters.

They may not work in Windows 10 either. One of the ones I have marked as not working in Windows 10.

The clones supposedly have issues with certain things but I really only used them for configuring Cisco switches and never had a single issue.

Claimer(s) pay shipping.

Edit: I'll throw in a genuine ftdi based USB serial adapter with any claims if the clones. Right now I have 5 clones but may have more.

Motherboard and USB serial adapters are still available. If the motherboard is not gone within a day or two, it is going up on eBay.

I now have these two low profile AGP cards available. A Vanta 16 and a Radeon 128 Pro. The Vanta 16 has a few superficial scratches on the back side. The Radeon 128 Pro has some rust on the bracket.
Both have been tested to POST.
You pay shipping.

Edit:
These video cards are claimed, pending payment for shipping.

Or how about a couple HP branded 3DConnexion SpacePilot CAD controllers?

These work fine in up to Windows 10 with the older driver versions that support the SpacePilot.

The rubbery grip has turned to goo. Easy enough to remove with lemon essential oil (fastest). Citrus based furniture polish will remove it as well, but takes a lot longer.

You pay shipping.

Anybody want to try a prototype of my PS/2 to serial -project? It's the converter described here, in particular it would be useful to see if it works with different KVM switches.

Internal PS/2 to serial mouse adapter

You pay postage. Also, while I have tested that this seems to work and doesn't break anything, I won't take responsibily for anything.

I have a computer to test with, a USB/PS2 intellimouse optical and native PS/2 ball mouse, an intellinet 2 port PS2/VGA KVM with emulation. The local electronics store has a USB-A Male to PS/2 Female adapter for a few dollars I could use to connect it with the KVM. The last thing I would need to source is a 2x10 IDC cable to connect it with the motherboard.

I have a spare 2x 10pin IDC cable as well, or you can get one from AliExpress. Anyways, I'll send you a private message when I have checked out what postage options are available.

EDIT: NeoG mentioned that he doesn't have actual long term use for it besides testing, so we'll wait a few days in case somebody with a serial only computer and a KVM switch wants it.
