Deal? Classic Mac Pro 4,1 Dual - MrNoBody - 02-28-2020
2009 4,1 w/ Dual 2.26 Xeons 20GB Ram 4x 500g HDD SuperDrive
Apple KB & Mouse + High Sierra but the case is only Fair.
Negotiated down to $200
I'm interested only for the Dual CPU tray. Cheapest dual-tray currently on eBay is
$265. LINKY
me thinks I could make some $$ out of upgrading my cMP to Dual and selling off
spares, etc. or make a single 6-core in the bad case and sell it.
(and add to my paperweight collection of old HDDs :biggrin: )

Follow UP:
Turns out I know the seller. He works for a university that used to be one of my
clients before I retired!
Mac exactly as advertised except the case is not as bad as his picture indicated.
No WiFi, BT is 2.1 & video is an Apple Radeon HD 4870-512; meh.
But, the Apple alum KB and Apple mouse look brand new.
The only bad thing is there's 4x 1GB RAM sticks that aren't worth using.
4x 4GB Hynix server RAM is a plus however.
d@m SATA-II HDD is a slow way to boot HS & it's a WD Black 'Enterprise'
500GB 7200 SATA-III of recent vintage.
Not sure what to do with all the installed software though. It has the entire
Ad0be Suite, M$office 2019, & some others installed with licenses. :dunno:
