Now that is a very nice system there! That's one of the Octane2 s you got off ‘SGISTEVE’, isn't it? (For some reason he decided to ditch all of his SGI s, and very nice ones at that too). With a PCI card cage and three internal SCSI disks in the bays installed by the looks of it, you could run that in [software] RAID5 if you wanted to. :o

What do you use it for, are you into graphics much? Do you plan on expanding it with a PCI cards, like one or more FC-controllers? Either way, it's a beauty!

IRIX doesn't do software RAID5, and I wouldn't recommend installing Linux on such a nice system :lol:

Well, then a regular striped/mirrored setup via XLV, that should be good enough as well. :)

As embarrassing it is to admit, the movie Jurassic Park lead me down the IRIX path. I am a bit obsessive. I also was really wanting to learn a UNIX system and a bit of graphic editing. I also longed for the command driven days, like back in the 90s.

Everyone on here pointed me toward an Octane. Naturally, I started leaning toward the higher spec ones. Then, SGISTEVE wanted to get rid of all his SGI stuff at a really good price. So, I went for it!

On top of that, I have a local expert who has every part and bit of knowledge I could ever want. Plus, he is only a few blocks away too.

I have since become fascinated with everything Silicon Graphics, and I see many more machines in my future...
