Some real server equipment images?
Hi,
So, I've been trying to find some real images of web servers, switches, firewall and all that. All I could find is datacenter stock images.
Could some peeps post some images of the same? or search term for images? Really interested in hardwares and system architecture

To skip the boring stuff, this is a server rarely seen on standard web hosting racks, a IBM Power 7+ with 6 SSD fitted on the front HDD bezels (RAID5 configuration). This is a popular configuration. To manually override the standard boot sequence, slide out the small control panel just below the tape drive to reveal a B&W LCD display with several buttons to navigate the control system.
The inside after removing the top cover (by the way, this server will power off automatically when the top cover is removed):
Everything is 100% proprietary and redundant. There are even two BBU RAID cache batteries, one is fastened on the plate at the top left and the other on the plate at the opposite end of the RAM banks. IBM Power servers are mostly used as database and application server.
Thank you all, I needed new images for my website to show off my awesome owned hardware and network!
That looks a lot like a normal computer.
Thanks a lot for detailed. Where are ssd?
What? Why?
Technically speaking, it IS a normal computer.
Here you go - http://i0.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/000/992/383/5f9.gif
Note the shiny blue lights and the front display. Kinky.
I caught your joke but you didn't got me. I mean why would I do that.
because it was never done before in history, you could be the first one
@william what are the odds of us having the same server in top of rack.
Yea not as good as a gaming pc
This will work?
Back in 2014 brand new server spin off:

DL320 are popular yea, it's one of our routers in this case.
Did you loose some (all?) of your blanks there?
What's your impressions of those 1072's? We're just starting to put them into production.
We've got some one our Twitter for the MicroCloud deployments we do; https://twitter.com/zare
My heymman server:
In the end even the 1072 is still not ASIC routed (only half-assed), at 3000$+ it is absolutely not worth the money, you can get used enterprise gear in that area already.
Advantage is that they can take a bunch of full tables more than most used enterprise routers in the price range.
Business partner sold a 1036 CCR in the end for a x86 server which beats it at a bit higher power usage but has 4x 10G and does full wire speed PP/S & BW.
Lol how'd you get a pic of the server? Cool to know what my server looks like too, though
You didn't post a joke, just completely failed to grasp mine.
No worries, I am sure English isn't your primary language.
Ah, okay. Yes, not primary but am not that bad at it as well.
They gave me after I asked they.
Nice! Francis seems like a good guy. Not sure if it's just him over there or if he has a team of some sort. He's the only one I've talked to so far.
The same with me.
On this server, they are mounted on standard HDD trays with blue brackets accessible from the front panel. If you order the option with the i operating system, they are specially formatted with 520 bytes/sector. The extra 8 bytes are used for memory addressing. On the i operating system, there is no difference between RAM and disk. Everything is a database table. An OS algorithm does dinamycally shifts table allocation between mechanical HDD, SSD and actual RAM.
SSD can also be installed on a carrier board in a PCI slot. The board does carry 4 disks.
@zare Ill help you out.
Oo MX240 Shiny
One dedi is just this?
