So.. i got my hands on to a siemens 10498209..

 

I am new to servers and am wondering what this needs to boot (network, fiber optic connection, ect) 

 

also what would be the best purpose for this machine if i decided to attempt converting it into a personal server for my home network?

In other words.. i don’t know the specs. What i do know is:

 

dual intel cpu’s


8gb ECC ram

 

fiberoptic cards

 

designed to boot off another computer

 

was used for MRI machines (medical equipment)

If I had to make a guess this is dual 771 hardware or older

 

The fibre cards are probably fibre channel, used for data storeage. Can you take the cards out and show a picture?

 

This looks like a older server hardware, nothing too special from that pic and specs. Can you show a picture of the inside?
