I recently acquired two old rack-mount servers with K6-2 processors. They don't have a manufacturer label and my guess is that they were assembled from kits and put in generic cases. One server came with a hard drive, so I erased MS-DOS from and installed Debian. It works great. It had Ethernet and video cards, so I was able to attach a monitor etc. to set it up; afterward, I unplugged everything except the Ethernet cable and am now controlling it from my desktop via ssh.
The other server came sans hard drive, and I'm trying to figure out what to put in it. The working server has a Maxtor 6.5 GB drive mounted in the middle of a bracket that appears capable of holding three total. The other one has just an empty space in the same spot. I'm having trouble finding a matching bracket when I search online. I also don't know what type of drive to put in it. I can't find a matching Maxtor drive online, and I would like more storage capacity than six-and-a-half gigabytes. Does anyone with knowledge of servers have any suggestions on what to use?
