Got a server. Don't know what to do with it.
I was given this HP ProLiant ML350 G5 server. Specs are:
Dual socket (771) mobo, only 1 cpu installed Quad core Intel Xeon 2.0ghz 2x 4mb L2 cache 3gb RAM (maybe less, some is probably redundant) 2x 72gb 15k SAS drives 6x hot swap SAS bays A goddamn tape drive probably other nifty things I haven't discovered yet, but I'm new to *real* servers. So.... I don't know what to do with this beast. I'd like to do something that generates income, at least enough to cover it's power consumption. Anyone want to rent a game server? :p Pics: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/1cr0nz2ry.../proliant-pics

I have the same problem my friend. Mine is IBM System x3650.
I mined litecoins with it's dual Xeons when it was profitable. Now it's just sitting under my desk useless. :/ EDIT: It tastes bad I don't want to eat it

Set up apache2 with vhosts and serve a few sites or install bind9 and rent out as a secondary DNS perhaps?

A tape drive... wow.
Install some VMs and set up a whole network to practice new things with?

Find another processor and use it as a rendering box.
