Fortune has smiled upon me, promotion at work, a raise... I might need
to finally invest in a proper server space and get some of the hardware
I have in my office out of earshot.

2 years ago, I passed on a D430, 2 D610s and 2 R720XDs I could have had
my pick of, gratis - the first 3 with at least 128 GB of RAM and a
mixture of SSD and SAS, the 720s with 192 GB RAM and full of SAS drives.
No where to run them, though.

I may be upgrading an HP DL380 in the near future, though...
