Dreams have to be woken up with laughter! Netizens 1000 yuan to pick up the leak 710GB memory strip

Fast Technology November 11th news, a Reddit netizen recently shared an enviable second-hand trading experience, he was only going to spend $95 to buy a few SATA SSDs and 32GB of memory.

In the end, he won an additional 95 memory bars for $150 (about 1086 yuan), with a total capacity of 710GB, 3 HP Elite Mini computers and a free SATA SSD.

It is understood that the netizen initially met a seller on the Facebook Marketplace and bought 3 SATA SSDs and 32GB of memory for a total price of $95, which was a good deal at the time.

After returning home, he found that one of the SSDs was not the Samsung model he originally wanted, and contacted the seller to replace the correct product. The other party did not shirk, and offered to meet again to solve it face-to-face.

At the meeting, the seller also mentioned that he had 3 idle minicomputers and a batch of memory bars in his hand, and asked if the buyer was interested in buying them together.

All three are HP Elite Mini series with Intel 12th, 13th or 14th generation T-Series processors, ranging from 16GB to 32GB of memory, and each with a 512GB NVMe SSD.

Eventually, the two parties agreed on a total price of $450: $300 for 3 minicomputers and $150 for 95 memory bars, plus an additional SATA SSD for the hardware originally purchased.

After counting, the buyer found that the total capacity of 95 memory bars reached 710GB, with an average of about 7.47 GB each. He sent the hardware photos to Reddit's r/pcmasterrace section, saying he still couldn't believe the deal was real.

Some netizens pointed out that many of them may be old products with 8GB capacity, and some of them belong to ECC memory or lower specifications models. The large total capacity does not mean that they are suitable for loading directly into ordinary gaming computers.

The poster responded that some 2 × 8GB combinations still have second-hand market value, which is especially suitable for older laptops with Intel 7th and 8th generation processors.

Netizens also suggested that he store the memory in Homelab and the second-hand server community for sale, making it easier to find buyers in the field of old workstations, servers and home laboratories.

There are also netizens who lament that the change in the price of memory is exaggerated: the four 32GB DDR4s they bought two years ago only cost 255 euros, and now the price of the same store has risen to 1460 euros.

At present, the netizen has not announced the detailed compatibility list of this batch of memory, but with only those 3 mini hosts, this wave of leakage has already made a lot of money.
