The HP ProLiant N40L microserver [1] is quite a steal at about 200-300 USD [2]. Adding in an extra nic and 4 * 2/3TB drives can give you 8-12 TB raw storage. It has more USB slots than my hand and sips on power. With the remaining PCIE slot, you can add in a low profile passive cooled GPU and you've got a wonder... I wonder where one can get one locally.. 1. http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/me/en/sm/WF06b/15351-15351-4237916-4237917-42... 2. http://www.serversplus.com/servers/tower_servers/hp_tower_servers/658553-421
Hi Laban, Any HP dealer can get you this, be prepared for a 4 - 6 wks lead time. I have implemented some projects using the same. The price will be higher than what you see from the HP site. R D On Monday, February 13, 2012, Laban Mwangi wrote:

I spoke to Sight & Sound today and they told me about the N36L (not the N40L) being available somewhere locally - probably! They were to send me a price, but looks like they either forgot or the mail is stuck somewhere along the way. By the time you add the drives and the RAM you need, the cost will be much higher though.... It uses ECC RAM!! On Mon, Feb 13, 2012 at 12:07, Laban Mwangi <lmwangi@gmail.com> wrote:

And it comes with 2GB ram (At least mine does for that price) The elevated hdd prices are something to watch out for though.
