[This has recently been sold .]

A quad-processor, 700-MHz R16000, Tezro tower workstation following specifications:
  • 8 gigabytes of (exclusively) ‘premium’ RAM;
  • VPro V12 plus DCD daughterboard;
  • DMediaPro DM3 XIO and VBOB (video break-out box) plus DM5 daughterboard, including the special white and black LVDS cables ;
  • RAD (RADical) AES/EBU 24-bit multi-channel PCI audio board plus break-out cable ;
  • dual-port RS-232/RS-442 O3000 serial I/O expansion PCI board;
  • LSI LS949X 4-gigabit dual-channel FC-AL (fiber-optical) PCI-X HBA, including transceivers;
  • LSI LS1068 3-gigabit octa-channel SAS PCI-X HBA, with SFF-8484/SAS<=>SFF-8482/S-ATA converter and power splitting Molex cables optionally available;
  • Neterion/S2io “XFrame II” 10-gigabit ethernet PCI-X NIC, with 10GBASE-SR (fiber-optical) transceiver included;
  • DVD-ROM drive (IDE/ATA, SGI part-numbered, seen little use as it was a later addition and the Tezro came without the DVD-ROM drive originally);
  • 2 × O300 (SGI/Intel-type) disk sleds present.

The system, video break-out-box, cables and the rest are all in excellent shape (only some scuff marks on the exteriors). There are no broken plastics, all LEDs and such work, all parts are included (like the DM3 board bulkhead and such, nothing is ‘freefloating’), all fans are working and so forth.

The system has mostly run on an APC UPS and has since quite some time been running solely on more energy-efficient S-ATA SSD disks, including the system disks , through ACARD UltraSCSI<=>S-ATA converters (although I'm not sure yet if I'm willing to sell it with these disks included, unless someone can persuade me with a reasonable enough offer).

I additionally may also be willing to part with other equipment, I have things like:
  • O3000 2-gigabyte RAM kits, spares;
  • dual-processor 700-MHz MIPS R16000 node board, kept as a spare after an upgrade;
  • Broadcom BCM5704 dual-port gigabit ethernet (1000BASE-T/TX, copper) PCI-X NIC, naturally IRIX compatible;
  • DMediaPro DM10 (FireWire IEEE-1394a) PCI board;
  • Wacom Intuos and Intuos2 graphics digitizer tablets, various types and sizes, with serial interfaces (needless to say, for SGI/IRIX usage);
  • SDI
    • several audio/video interfaces (please contact me for more information);
    • various lengths of, proper 75-Ω, BNC cables and terminators;
  • FC
    • various disk storage systems (including of HP and Ciprico), mostly 2- and 4-gigabit, with disks, (fiber-optical) transceivers, PSUs and spare disks included (please contact me for more information);
    • various lengths and types of cables, including several LC, one LC<=>SC and a few ‘InfiniBand’ types;
    • HP bi-directional FC<=>SCSI bridge (ask for more information);
  • SCSI
    • LSI Ultra320 PCI-X HBA (at least one, but I may have more), compatible and firmware flashed under IRIX;
    • disks, many 300-gigabyte Ultra320 models with 80-pin SCA/SCA2 interface;
    • HVD and (mostly) LVD/SE terminators, including several Ultra320 ones;
    • cables, all sorts of types and lengths (also SCSI conversions);
    • tape drives, including various types of DAT/DDS (particularly Sony DAT40/DDS-4 types) and an external Quantum/Certance Ultrium LTO-1 full-height unit.
  • Neterion/S2io “XFrame II” 10-gigabit ethernet PCI-X NICs, with 10GBASE-SR (fiber-optical) transceivers included (I have a good amount of these, please contact me for more information).
There's more, that I'm probably forgetting to mention. Either way, if any of this interests you (or if you're wondering if I perhaps may have something to your interest that I forgot to list), feel free to contact me about it.

Lastly, the system is located in the Netherlands and I'm willing to ship. If you're interested, send me a private message and feel free to ask for more information and to make a reasonable offer.

My guess is.... $12000 ?

(Based on what I see on eBay at the moment)
Shall I describe it to you? Or do you want me to get you a box?

No, not that much. The price would also depend on the preferred configuration (with whatever possible options/extras chosen).

Never a shortage of people hoping to make a score on eBay ...

I can assure you I paid only a fraction of that amount for my 4x1GHz Tezro which came with all the 'Discreet' bells and whisles: DMedia, VBOB, FC, gigabit, audio, ...

For $12K the Discreet dongle is probably included. Otherwise it is roughly $10K overpriced.
Now this is a deep dark secret, so everybody keep it quiet :)
It turns out that when reset, the WD33C93 defaults to a SCSI ID of 0, and it was simpler to leave it that way... -- Dave Olson, in comp.sys.sgi

Otherwise it wouldn't be a Discreet Flame system :-)

Just to clarify, to prevent possible misunderstandings and more, I'm not selling this as a ‘Discreet [Flame]’ system.
