I may be able to afford some different servers after all. I had been really worried when my technicians suggested that I buy some new servers but after doing that over ten years ago and remembering how much it had cost me then, I just knew that I could not afford it at this time.

I called the technicians into my office to see if they thought we had any other options than new servers and they said that we could checkout used servers that had been refurbished. The used servers would probably be about half the cost of new ones, they thought. I was happy to hear this and they showed me a site that sold used poweredge servers for great prices.

I went from thinking there was no way I could afford the servers, to being able to get two much bigger used poweredge servers to install in the office. This way, the used servers would not have to work near as hard as the smaller ones that were currently installed. I was happy that I sat down and talked to my technicians or else I would have been stressing about it for a long time still trying to figure out where to get the money for some new ones.
