    Chapter 97: Picked up gold (5)

    Fang Shaoyun quickly took out a small grinding wheel cutting machine and handed it to Zhang Yang.  "You have all these things? Do you want to turn this place into a factory?" Zhang Yang was speechless. Although the school usually doesn't care about the graduate student dormitories, in fact, these dormitories are more like family buildings of the school. Usually,  It's like renting it to these graduate students, with basically no one taking care of it.

    But if you use these tools in the dormitory for a long time, someone may stab them in the school.  "It's okay. This kind of tool is generally not used. I'm just in case. If it doesn't work, I'll rent a house outside." Fang Shaoyun said quickly.

    After a moment of hesitation, Zhang Yang quickly took the cutting machine and walked to his room.  In fact, it's not that difficult. Those welding joints are just welded randomly and can be opened by polishing with a grinding wheel.  With a harsh noise, Zhang Yang quickly opened all the welding joints, then unplugged the power source and pulled out a set of blades.

    Pulling out this set of blades and looking at the structure inside, Zhang Yang was completely confused. Iah!  What's going on?  There is also a difference between a blade server and a blade server. The moment he pulled out the blade, Zhang Yang said in his heart, he hit the jackpot!

    ¡° This thing let alone 30,000 yuan, you may not be able to buy it back even if it costs ten times. After confirming the value of the thing in your hand, Zhang Yang became even more curious about the origin of this thing.  Just by looking at the blade in his hand, Zhang Yang knew that it was definitely the most advanced. The CPU on it was the latest CPU launched by IBM in 2004.  Zhang Yang checked quickly and knew that this server was produced by IBM. It has a typical 7u structure. The 7u structure does not mean that there are 7 CPUs in it, but a unit of specifications. The width is 19 inches and the height is in u (  1u=1.75 inches=44.45 mm).

    ??And IBM all uses 7u bases, with a total of 14 blades. If such a large cabinet is put together, one cabinet has 84 blades, and two of them are 168 blades.  Zhang Yang has just seen the performance of a single blade. Although the performance of a single blade is average, the performance of 168 blades combined is amazing. But according to the configuration of this blade, the performance is definitely not just the performance.  What a look.

    "How is it? How is it? Is this thing broken?" Fang Shaoyun, who was joining in the fun, had just listened to Zhang Yang's whole process of buying this server.

    "Broken? Oh, by the way, let me take a look." Zhang Yang was just shocked by the configuration of this thing. He forgot to check the reason for the blades. He took out all the blades inside and quickly checked. This kind of server chassis  It is not just a container, each card slot has power supply and other interfaces inside.

    After checking it again, Zhang Yang looked strange. These blades were not broken at all, but although the interface behind each blade was connected, a switch that was obviously designed separately for these blades was turned off.  Some of the jumpers had obviously been artificially replaced.

    Zhang Yang's eyes narrowed. It was obvious that although he didn't know where Master Liu got the server, the people who handled it definitely didn't understand computers, and even if Master Liu knew computers, he was still at the lowest level.  During the period, I saw that most of this thing was broken, and it was finally sold for only 30,000 yuan, and the price he received was probably pitifully low.

    In the eyes of people who don't know the goods, these things are no different from scrap metal. Zhang Yang quickly fixed all the interfaces inside, and then reopened the server. A low voice sounded, and Zhang Yang immediately clapped his hands excitedly:  "ok, done."

    The entire system started to start quickly. After a long hardware test, the system started successfully. However, there was a big difference between this time and last time. The advantage of the blade server is that the blades can be started individually or collectively for high-density computing.  When Zhang Yang just started it, it started with a single blade, but now that so many new blades have been added, Zhang Yang originally thought he had to redo the system, but he didn't expect that after the system was tested, it could be started directly and successfully.

    This system has been used by experts. Until now, Zhang Yang has not figured out who in China can use such a high-standard blade server at such an early time.  Zhang Yang just checked the configuration of these blade servers. If Zhang Yang remembers correctly, blade servers with this configuration will not be basically popular until at least three years later, that is, in 2007!

    Three years!  You must know that Moore's Law in the computer field is not a lie. The so-called Moore's Law means that when the price remains unchanged, the number of transistors that can be accommodated on an integrated circuit will double approximately every 18 months, and the performance will also double.  It will be doubled!  In other words, the computer performance that everyone can buy for 100 yuan will increase by 100% every 18 months!

     Three years!  In other words, the performance is at least 200% higher than that of computers in 2004. What does this mean?  This means that in 2004, someone will be able to use something that is three years beyond the current technology!  Even the previous owner of this server may have owned it for more than just 2004. You must know that this thing is used!

    Although laboratory technology may be five or more years ahead of popular mass technology, it is laboratory technology after all. Anything can happen in the laboratory, but if someone can figure it out, that means  The power is not even a little bit.

    After thinking about it thoroughly in my mind, Zhang Yang had no idea who could be so awesome. If he was in the United States, it would be excusable. After all, whether it is IBM, Intel or other world leaders in the information technology field.  The giants are all in the United States, and senior engineers from these companies may also be able to use these servers.

    The problem is that this thing is indeed made in China.

    "No, it seems that I bought something good this time. Let me see where this thing was made first." Zhang Yang quickly began to check the Linux system that comes with the computer. As the source code is open to the world,  An operating system perfected by tens of thousands of programmers around the world, Linux has something different in the hands of every programmer.

    Fang Shaoyun watched for a while, feeling a little bored. He scratched his head and said, "You have to worry about Zhang Yang first. I'll go to the room to clean up these things."

    "Well, go ahead and let me see what's wrong with this computer." Zhang Yang said without turning around. Just now, Zhang Yang remembered that when he opened the hard disk array, he found that there were obvious traces of erasure in the hard disk, but the data was  It can be restored, but Zhang Yang is not sure whether this thing is damaged or not.
