A short, practical addendum tied to the thread and the follow-ups from , , , , and — focused on what a buyer or seller years later will find useful and what to confirm before any local pickup.

Recommended checks and documentation to request: the system Service Tag/serial, photos of front and rear panels (showing power modules and rails), confirmation of whether rack rails or the tower conversion kit are included, and a short power‑on video that shows POST/BIOS. On‑site hardware checks that materially reduce risk are: observe a full POST, run available Dell hardware diagnostics, confirm redundant‑power behavior by briefly removing one power module (only if redundancy is claimed), and verify the backplane/RAID battery condition. Dell’s installation/troubleshooting and diagnostics guides cover these procedures. ()

Power modules and parts guidance: the 2600 family uses proprietary hot‑swap OEM power modules that are commonly listed in aftermarket inventories under NPS‑730 / NPS‑730AB and equivalent part numbers — these modules are often sold separately and are a frequent reason buyers want the chassis. Used modules should be tested (and matched by part number) before relying on them. Official service documentation includes the power‑supply replacement/upgrade procedures. (usapartsdirect.com)

Upgrade, reuse and safety notes: the platform supports microprocessor upgrades and dual‑CPU installs but the secondary CPU must match the primary and BIOS updates are sometimes required; official upgrade and installation procedures explain the needed steps. The system is mechanically heavy and has explicit ESD and lifting/safety guidance in Dell literature — plan for two people to move it and follow the vendor safety steps. For anyone repurposing the unit (lab, parts, or storage chassis), check Dell service manuals for backplane and memory limits before buying. (manualzilla.com)

Summary: given the thread activity about spare power supplies and parts, the most valuable checks are a verified power‑on with diagnostics, confirmation of service tag/parts, and clear pictures of rails/connectors. These reduce disputes for local pickup and make the listing much more attractive to buyers.
