Small NAS = HP Micro Server

If someone has a spare in Melbourne I am keen to grab one.
Cheers.

 

I just received my three units today (well, one for me, two for a mate). Impressive delivery time from DessyTek!

After pulling it out of the box (haven't even turned it on yet), I'm somewhat regretting that I didn't buy more...!

 

uber disappointed that my dressytek BPay didnt go through too. Anyone want to offer me one of their multi box purchases? I would be extremely grateful!

 

Well I got mine all working nicely...

Just waiting for the most important stuff to sync over then I can run this 24/7 instead of my other beast of a server.

Hopefully my next power bill shows it!

I'm hoping my megabuy order went through in time this arvo, they've charged my card just awaiting confirmation of payment tomorrow

 

Same here, very disappointed. And looks like we're outta luck on getting one from any other disty.

 

I believe they canned all bpay, DD and MOs and processed all CC and paypal purchases first.

 

i ordered mine from hboutlet on friday and got it today sometime at home, what hdd do u guys recommend? i am thinking of just getting 2 hdd's atm, sorry for the noob question, but does it support sata3 or just sata2? if so, will wd drives be sufficient?

Must be a dusty house

Still waiting on mine but have received confirmation from HBO that it shipped. Anyway Magabuy has HP recommended Kingston 4gig memory sticks at a reduced price of $79.95 although ICE still shows $103. Just bought 1 stick for meself

 

Nup, group buys have to be approved to avoid unscrupulous people organising "group buys" and then nicking off with everyone's money.

I've messaged agg about it, but yet to get a reply.

 

regretting not getting in before the weekend.
Hopefully more turn up on sale.

 

Thanks for the clear linkage.

 

How do we know this bios from russia isn't creating some sort of low level botnet?

Just asking.

 

Yeah I'm in the same boat, hopefully they had a person there reading the stock levels or something.

 

thanks for all this info, i learned a lot about this box and RAID-Z under ZFS here.

hopefully my box will deliver today (ordered on saturday), from sunday its status coming up as shipped.

if anyone wants to offload their 1GB RAM, pls PM me with price. i'm keen to buy one.

 

Same here.... I ordered mine a good 2 hours before they took it down so fingers crossed!

 

I seriously doubt this is even possible..

 

IT spot is still recording they have stock http://www.itspot.com.au/hp-microserver-amd-n36l-1gb250gb35-sata-no-cd-1yr-p255124.html
