Vmware ESXI server

[noob67]

I am looking to use generic desktop parts to build a Vmware ESXI server on the cheap.

It need to have:

+CoreI7

+8-12GB Ran

+10x 1TB Hard drives

+ 2-4 GB NICs

Any ideas? Would like to know, what you would use. Models and every thing.

Thanks

You want that on the cheap?

just out of curiosity, how cheap are you needing to build this for, and where are you planning to cut corners for this machine if need be?

servers don't often happen on the cheap unless you start with an older machine that was refurbished, in which case it's try your luck with refurbishing houses in your country/state/city.
