COMMENTS:
Items 6 & 8, internal drives, require a connector as shown in picture. Drives intended for external use,
such as in a "piano" have a different carrier bolted on the drives. The carrier is
attached with "security" Torx screws, for which a removal tool is difficult to find. As a result,
it is not possible to use such drives internal to the machine.
** The IBM Netfinity 4000R and Network Engines Blazer 1.0 (P7000) are, in fact, the same machine. About the only difference between the two are the manufacturer names & the remote management software that Network Engines shipped and did NOT license to IBM. Otherwise, IBM took the OEM'd Blazers, slapped their names on it, and off they went. There's a company in Burbank (Effective Engineering - www.effeng.com) that specializes in support for the Blazers. You can get the manual at http://www.effeng.com/nei.html . They *do* carry the KVM cables, but they quoted me $100 for one, and also pushed that they were "the only supplier on the internet with these." Not true. DO NOTE, however, that in the manual is the pinout table for all the ports., IBM has either completely discontinued the (price-jacked) KVM cables and boxes, or has changed the part numbers to nothing anyone can find. Even the IBM reps on the phone were clueless, and could only reccomend their outsourced parts company, who also doesn't carry any of the parts. Googling for any incarnation of "Netfinity", "4000R", "Network Engines", "Blazer", "KVM", and "Console Cable" combined turns up a good number of stores who at one point had the cables for sale, but have long since let them go, There were a few models of the KVM cable available. You could either get a breakout box that took the cable with 2 37pin jacks and turned it into the VGA and two PS/2 ports in a piece of hardware, or get a single cable that had one jack for the server, and three ends (2 PS/2, 1 VGA).
