Looking for:
Nothing right now
Freebies:
CyberPower 485VA UPS
Shuts down almost immediately after AC power is lost, I'm assuming it's just a shot battery, but no guarantees, it's possible something in the unit itself could have failed. Looks like replacement batteries are about $20 (if you want to look it up, battery model # is WP4.5-12 -- 12V 4.5Ah lead-acid). Will remove the old battery before shipping to cut down on weight and cost.
Fujitsu 8.4GB 3.5" HDD
Model # MPE3084AE. Drive works fine. Makes a high-pitched whine, but I think that's just the noise signature of these older drives, and not a sign of failure.
Polk Audio 2.0 speakers
Unpowered, so you'd need to an amp for them. They seem to work alright, though, but obviously don't expect super sound quality -- they're just some cheap speakers that came with an old pre-built PC.
Maxtor 60GB 3.5"
Has been sitting around for a while, so I don't remember exactly what is wrong with it. If anybody is interested I can find a computer to plug it into and run some diagnostic stuff on it. I got it from somebody else, so I haven't done any testing myself to see what exactly is wrong with it. I've also included a close up of the logic board, if it's a failure of the board and you happen to have one lying around, might be an easy fix to just swap the boards.
17 1.44MB floppy disks
All are labeled and have other stuff on them (DOS, Windows, other old software). I didn't test them all, but tried four or five and all seemed to work fine.
512MB DDR2 SODIMM 533MHz
Working pull from a Dell Mini 9 laptop.
