Project:UpgradeComputers
From London Hackspace Wiki
(Redirected from Projects/UpgradeComputers)
Lots of the computers around the space are quite long in the tooth. It would be good to replace them with things slightly less long in the tooth.
End Goal
- 1 Server (to replace babbage)
- 2 Workstations
- 1 Computer for the touch table
Things to do
- Find out the type of RAM that is in each computer
- Check PCIe capacities for graphics cards
- Catalog hard disks and figure out what goes where
- Save useful data
- Run stress tests on potential systems (e.g. light-grey Dennis)
Current Computers
- 2x Dennis - Light grey seems like a useful system if stable
- Lovelace - Useful in it's entirety
- Difference - Ram might be useful
- Babbage - Probably not useful at all
- Computer from Steff - not in space yet!
- Silver computer - needs power supply fitting/modding
When
Sometime after Christmas
