2.6 Putting-it-all-together hardware

We use KVM switches with a cheap monitor to connect up and "look" at all the machines:

• 15" .28dp XLN CTL Monitor
• 3 Belkin Omniview 16-Port Pro Switches
• Belkin Omniview 2-Port Switch

While this is a nice solution, I think it's kind of needless. What we need is a small hand held monitor that can plug into the back of the PC (operated with a stylus, like the Palm). I don't plan to use more monitor switches/KVM cables.

Networking is important:

• 1 Netgear FSM750S 48 port/2 git network switch
• 1 Netgear FS517TS 16 port/1 git network switch
• 1 Netgear FS750NA 48 port network switch
• 1 Netgear FS524 24 port network switch
• 1 Cisco Catalyst 3448 XL Enterprise Edition 48 port network switch
• 1 Netgear ME102NA Wireless Access Point
• 1 Netgear MA401NA Wireless PCMCIA network card

2.7 Costs

Our vendor is Hard Drives Northwest ( http://www.hdnw.com). For each compute node in our cluster (containing two processors), we paid about $1500-$2000, including taxes. Generally, our goal is to keep each node to below $2000.00 (which is what our desktop machines cost).
