Grant HutchinsonBelieve it or not, all of these #Xserve and #XRAID bits are still available. Pick one or pick them all. Cover the shipping and they could be yours.

codepoet@splorp do you have a sata drive backplane and/or logic board for the 2009 xserve?
@codepoet80 One of the replacement motherboards is for a dual processor 2009 Xserve (but does not include the processors themselves).
I have another mostly intact Xserve (Early 2009 Quad Core) without drives or memory. I believe that this was the server for those Intel replacement parts.
I’d be willing to part it out, if you need the backplane as well.
@splorp would love to buy that backplane off you. I’m not in Canada again until Christmas, but would happily pay for shipping to my in-laws (who *are* in Canada!)
@codepoet80 Let me take a peek at what’s in that beastie and we can figure something out.
@codepoet80 I just pulled the backplane out of the donor Xserve … can you confirm that this is what you’re looking for?
@splorp that’s the part! I’ve been through 3, they all die the same slow and annoying death! Happy to give yours a new home… how can I pay you?
@codepoet80 PayPal is fine with me. My first name at splorp dot com. I just need an address and I’ll figure out the postage.
