In a previous video I showed a collection of old server that i bought on facebook: • I bought Old Servers o...
So in this video we try out the 2 coolest machines that are almost similar. With dual pentium3 and an intel nightshade 440bx motherboard. Lets see which OS is on the machines. And if they still work!

I see Pentium 3, i immediately think of Unreal and Unreal Tournament.
Are you forgetting about Quake III Arena? Blasphemy!
Win2k on 1, FreeBSD 4.1 on the other... one sprayed orange one cobalt blue :-)
They mostly steel work in datacenters and companies, because Linux system on old hardware can realise modern tasks if they are not so heavy. For e.x. telephony system based on asterisk may serve up to 50 customers easy in dual pentium III , or make samba sharing and many else
45005 days. Hmmm, 123 years. Now that's an old server. :-D
Those machines turned out to be a great find!
I love that closed captioning say s squishy hard drive instead of scsi
Victor Bart, groeten vanuit zonnige en over warme curacao, blij om weer een video vann jou te zien.
The 2nd system is running Asterisk, an open-source PBX/SoftSwitch software (so it's a phone system).
Very interesting machines. I hope you try to do some more with them.
Thanks for your time and effort.
I'd be curious to see if you can install the latest version of Debian on them. From there on a clean system you can install whatever you want.
Cool find
Install Gentoo on them
Awesome, My man.
OpenBSD, Win2K, server for Win3.1/Win95/DOS games load one up with public domain/ shareware and utilities
I still owning working dual P2-333 :-)
I have the same. Work well on 32bit version
Hello Victor. I really like your videos. But here you show a very bad idea to other hobbyists: openning a PC power supply a few seconds after it has been unplugged, it is a very bad idea, unless you know exactly what you are doing. The risk of electric shock is real, due to the high voltage capacitors inside. You should always let the power supply unplugged during a long time (several hours) before openning it.
Apart from that, I'm very impatient that you power up and you use the SUN Netra 48V servers, I like these!
@@elly3713 I strongly disagree with you, don't give such advice to others, please. Most PC-power-supplies switch off at 100V or 90V, and therefore the capacitors at input can maintain this DANGEROUS voltage during several minutes, or dozens of minutes. For 230V-only power-suppliers, this switch-off voltage is even worse, arround 180-200V. Even if you unplug the power-supply under load. You should always let the power supply unplugged during several HOURS before oppening it. Please don't play with high voltage, it's way too dangerous. It can kill you.
It would be cool to put a breifcase handle on the side of the case for lan parties
I have two Pentium !!! Linux servers too! Dual Pentium !!!, 866 MHZ 1GB of ram, and dual Hitachi UltraStar DK32CJ-18MC SCSI hard drives. Also mine were made in 2001.
What is the earlier version of windows that supports 2 CPUs? Windows NT?
I think Window 2000 Advanced Server, I installed that on my dual P3 servers and it seems to split the load across the two CPUs.
@@ducksonplays4190 Nice. What kind of ''load'' was it?
@@billysgeo Just a CPU benchmark and hard drive benchmark.
@@billysgeo Plus when I would move a window around at high speeds the CPU usage on both CPUs would increase.
Prácticamente veo una pc como cualquier otro
airbrush those cases. Make a nice painting on it.
Hi
I have compaq proliantt dl320 with scsi onboard and 4gb ! RAM. 2x cpu p -iii It has broken psu but I have built connector to atx )) Do you need it for experiments and collection? First type ilo also included
Listen, you didnt get a far as a login prompt. But I would still consider that a successful boot!
Turn it into an Hello Kitty pc ,, voodoo3, 4 or 5 PCI card , Beast hardware inside but kitty from outside . hahaha
Wasnt there one with 8x PIII's?
Your accent is so cool
Was scsi popular back in the day in old machines?
In the classic Mac, server and high end workstation market absolutely yes. IDE was for low end PC's but as time went on it got a lot better whilst classic SCSI sort of stagnated and prices never came down. SATA and SAS later put classic SCSI in the grave, along with USB for external items like scanners, external hard drives etc.
U320 scsi with normal pcie or pcix controller and 15k rpm disks possibly faster then sata 2 or sata3 . On many concurrent access , seeking time, access time, u320 also give some scores
45000 days
it is due to clock being backwards
I belive it will be close to 2^31 seconds
I think it counts 2005 (or something) to 1996. Which is 89 years 😅 something weird like that. But it counted 123 years 🤣
@@victorbart research unix clock
it is 32 bit signed integer
it can count 68 years from 1970 forward, and then when you add one more second past 2^31-1 you get 68 years backwards (ones complement) which is 1901.
file system subsystem in Linux Kernel assumes you always count forwards, therefore you get 123 years.
This alone gives you raw estimation, when file system was last checked
all you need to do is to subtract your number of days from 49710 and add date from BIOS
it is 5th November 2007
You're not really trying to be retro unless you can get a functioning system in 16MB. :-)
i hate those pentiums 3 that come in that nintendo type cartrege
Debian Etch
Scuuuusie! 🤣✌👍✔
Intel boards not a fan in my twenty years second biggest failures only after MSI boards
I think i have one of these Mainboards, or at least a very similar one, laying around, hit me Up If you need it
Of course it boots. It's Linux 😁
I wasn’t ready for that Dutch accent
