    Breaking down a Data Center

    My buddy (used to be my partner) called the other day and the lumber co. he works for was upgrading their
    computer system. I ended hauling off 4 Data Centers and 3 17" monitors plus some misc metal racking.
    I took two of the Data Centers apart and took a few pic's. They look to be 14-15" all in one's with a small data terminal (?) built in. Never did find a brand name on them. Maybe Data General.




    You have to pull the extra plastic off to get to the boards inside.


    This data board slides out after taking off the plastic panel holding it. Notice the gold plug-in? The mate to it is on the power board.


    Here is a close-up of the data board removed earlier.


    Here is the power supply board still setting in the shell.It's just setting on a couple of plastic pins.




    Here's the power supply board removed.


    This is all that's inside, power supply board, data board and small yoke.


    If you noticed, there is no degaussing cable or tinned "silver" wire inside.
