Anyone interested in a quad-processor, 700-MHz 64-bit R16000,
Silicon Graphics Tezro tower visual workstation? (From ca.
2006, still seeing some use in some studios, who haven't
moved to Linux or Mac yet.)
I'm hereby offering mine and the specifications of my system
are as follows:
- 8 gigabytes of (exclusively) 'premium' RAM;
- SGI VPro V12 XIO graphics card plus _DCD_
daughterboard;
- SGI DMediaPro _DM3_ XIO /and/ _VBOB_ (video break-
out box) plus _DM5_ daughterboard, /including/ the
special, and rare, *LVDS cables* (white and black);
- SGI RAD (RADical) AES/EBU 24-bit multi-channel
PCI audio board *plus break-out cable*;
- SGI 2-port RS-232/RS-442 O3000 serial I/O expansion
PCI board;
- LSI LS949X _4-gigabit_ dual-channel FC-AL (fiber-
optical) PCI-X HBA, including transceivers;
- LSI LS1068 3-gigabit octo-channel SAS PCI-X HBA,
with SFF-8484/SAS<=>SFF-8482/S-ATA converter and
power splitting Molex cables optionally available;
- Neterion/S2io "XFrame II" _10-gigabit_ ethernet
PCI-X NIC, with 10GBASE-SR (fiber-optical)
transceiver included;
- DVD-ROM drive (IDE/ATA, SGI part-numbered, seen
little use as it was a later addition and the
Tezro came without the DVD-ROM drive originally);
- 2 * SGI O300 (Intel-type) disk sleds present.
Needless to say it's capable of running the latest version of
IRIX (i.e. 6.5.30), as this was the last workstation by SGI, as
you may likely already know.
Below is additional, and more detailed, information from the IRIX
commands "hinv", "gfxinfo" and "diskpatch" (in that order).

The system, video break-out-box, cables and the rest are all in
excellent shape (only some scuff marks on the exteriors). There
are no broken plastics, all LEDs and such work, all parts are
included (like the DM3 board bulkhead and such, nothing is
'freefloating'), all fans are working and so forth.
The system has mostly run on an APC UPS and has since quite some
time been running solely on more energy-efficient S-ATA SSD disks,
including the system disks, through ACARD UltraSCSI<=>SATA
converters (although I'm not sure yet if I'm willing to sell it
with these disks included, unless someone can persuade me with a
reasonable enough offer).
I additionally may also be willing to part with other equipment,
I have things like the following:
- SGI O3000 2-gigabyte RAM kits, spares;
- SGI dual-processor 700-MHz 64-bit MIPS R16000 node
board, kept as a spare after an upgrade;
- Broadcom BCM5704 [b]dual-port[/b] gigabit ethernet
(1000BASE-T/TX, copper) PCI-X NIC, naturally IRIX
compatible;
- SGI DMediaPro DM10 (FireWire IEEE-1394a) PCI board;
- Wacom Intuos and Intuos2 graphics digitizer tablets,
various types and sizes, with serial interfaces
(needless to say, for SGI/IRIX usage);
- SDI
o several audio/video interfaces (please contact
me for more information);
o various lengths of, proper 75-?, BNC cables and
terminators;
- FC
o various disk storage systems (including of HP
and Ciprico), mostly 2- and 4-gigabit, with
disks, (fiber-optical) transceivers, PSUs and
spare disks included (please contact me for
more information);
o various lengths and types of cables, including
several LC, one LC<=>SC and a few 'InfiniBand'
types;
o HP bi-directional FC<=>SCSI bridge (ask for
more information);
- SCSI
o LSI Ultra320 HBA (at least one, but I may have
more), compatible and firmware flashed in IRIX;
o disks, many 300-gigabyte Ultra320 models with
80-pin SCA/SCA2 interface;
o HVD and (mostly) LVD/SE terminators, including
several Ultra320 ones;
o cables, all sorts of types and lengths (also
SCSI conversions);
o tape drives, including various types of DAT/
DDS (particularly Sony DAT40/DDS-4 types) and
an external Quantum/Certance Ultrium LTO-1
full-height unit;
- Neterion/S2io "XFrame II" _10-gigabit_ ethernet PCI-X
NICs, with 10GBASE-SR (fiber-optical) transceivers
included (I have a good amount of these, please contact
me for more information).
There's more, that I'm probably forgetting to mention. Either way,
if any of this interests you (or if you're wondering if I perhaps
may have something to your interest that I forgot to list), feel
free to contact me about it.
Lastly, the system is located in the Netherlands and I'm willing
to ship. If you're interested, send me a private message and feel
free to ask for more information and to make a reasonable offer.
