    I had to buy some previously for EOL servers that I have at home and the best likely choice is still aliexpress and simply contact various manufacturers with your needs and the price you expect to pay. With large orders theyre likely to come to your aid.

    Yes and you are so lucky if get it for $1.86 each. Even aliexpress list starts from ~$4

  • NanoG6 said: Yes and you are so lucky if get it for $1.86 each. Even aliexpress list starts from ~$10

    this for exemple is arrownd 1.08 eur http://imgur.com/a/KFfXz but dont have quantity.

    Probably not compatible then? Some will sell some at pennies to get rid of them vs someone who has lots of stock

    i repeat what i have post , i have buy lastr week ``1600 caddy for the price 1.86$ so the price is realistic. Now in Romania the guys is selling the same caddy for 10 eur/caddy. If is a reseller definetly need to win something but not exagerate.

  • Pertti said: In-stock 2000+ pieces, but 10e/piece.

    for this price i close my dc and start selling all caddy :)

  • Possibly alibaba rather than aliexpress, aliexpress is for small one off orders, alibaba is the Wholesale/b2b site for large orders, at 4K units I suspect some of the sellers there would be ok with talking to you.

    For that quantity you need to speak to HP partner/wholesalers and get a 'special' price, they will come down to next to zero I suspect, anyone with that many caddies (for sale) for old EOL hardware made some bad business decisions to begin with and will be happy to offload them for shipping + a few cents p/unit.

  • AnthonySmith said: For that quantity you need to speak to HP partner/wholesalers

    you will halucinate , the price what i have recive from a USA partner was 6.37 and one of Romania 5.80 eur. So is verry unrealistic

  • randvegetarandvegeta Member, Host Rep

    why you need so many caddy so quickly.

  • randvegeta said: why you need so many caddy so quickly.

    you will see verry soon here in LET way

    because they were considered retired in 2010/2011 and all G6's are EOSL, no one is going to be keeping a HUGE stock of caddies for them because the ones still in service already have caddies.

    The only people stock piling them are people who will be getting a good price for them for years to come as people refuse to upgrade, need spares, want to expand old hardware, the same sort of people that still want to use windows XP.

    Your restricted on price because you are in a rush, if you wanted a really good price you could send one to china to be remanufactured :)

  • AnthonySmith said: Your restricted on price because you are in a rush, if you wanted a really good price you could send one to china to be remanufactured :)

    yes , normaly i buy from there but have only 2 weeks until new year in china and nobody is take this quantity right now....

  • Any way , find 500 for the moment ... from china in good price , i hope make at least half now and half after new year. ...

  • Fake ones might end up confiscated but are very cheap to get, legal implications... no comment.

    Have some in China that do G6 and G7 but NOT G8 (these are using chips and some LEDs). 2-3EUR, build quality same as original/better and unused.

    Used... there are some EU sellers but these are mostly legit used ones, at high prices.

    TL;DR get 10Gbit and run central storage.

    The irony ;-)

    Not that ironic; i still remember this Intel Xeon based HP server i had in Tehran (by Afr@net) some years ago - which should have been impossible not by one but by a few (US, high tech, re-export, encryption, EU) embargoes...
