2U, 2amps @ 120v - What can I fit?

There is a facility I will be testing out with a 2U, 2 amp @ 120v colo. Will be tossing up a non-latency sensitive database. Was curious if people had thoughts as to what (used and from eBay) server I could stuff in and not go over on the power usage?

    As long as you don’t stuff diks in - then a single proc Xeon Scalable could work… something like a Xeon Gold 5120 or Silver 4110 - look for Lenovo SR550 as an example. But in the power budget, 2u doesn’t make sense… you’re better off with 1u and more power unless you need 3.5” drives…
