[Dorset] HP Microserver
Hi You can currently get £70 cashback on an HP Microserver (£155 + VAT). These are regular deals. At the price I think these are great little machines for general light server duties at home or work. Very neatly thought out inside with four drive bays (no disks included) and pretty light on power consumption. https://www.serversplus.com/microserver_cashback do them, among others. Currently running Debian on a couple of these.

We run FreeNAS off a USB drive from the internal USB slot, and run ZFS on the disks. Apart from the first USB drive failing (it was a cheap one), we've had no problems and it's a really awesome box. Actually, we've since bought another one... -- Next meeting: Bournemouth, Tuesday, 2013-10-01 20:00 Meets, Mailing list, IRC, LinkedIn, ... http://dorset.lug.org.uk/ New thread on mailing list: mailto:dorset@mailman.lug.org.uk How to Report Bugs Effectively: http://goo.gl/4Xue
