I got one of these Quadra 950s booted up.
Main drive is a 1 GB IBM drive on the motherboard bus, mounted where the CD would go.
It has the 5 drive shelf, all 5 drives are Quantum 9.1 GB drives, set up in a RAID 5 array to get about 36 GB of space. Freakin' sweet. Fast, fault tolerant - what more could you ask for. I assume the other 950 is similar. There are more, what appear to be 9.1 GB drives in a box.
For some reason when I boot with all the extensions on it never boots - it gets to the Desktop and just kind of freezes up. Right now I have enabled only the "Remus" extensions and a control panel for the SCSI card and it boots right up.
The other 950 is not producing a startup sound. It may need a battery?
The 9150 is in storage due to lack of space at this time.
I'm definitely considering making one of these a server. If I can configure it somehow to only use a small slice of my upload bandwidth - I get 1 mbps upload and it would need to be limited to like 256 kbps or so as not to monopolize it. Then I could run Hotline and maybe a basic web server just to say I have a 950 web server. A/UX a possibility but I don't know if Hotline can run on that.
