One for the geeks, an uber-geek collegue (his geeky-ness level is off the chart, in a good and very useful way!) pointed me towards this little bargain this morning...

http://www.ebuyer.com/281915-hp-proliant-turion-ii-n40l-microserver-100-cashback-658553-421

£140 (after cashback offer, which ends tomorrow) for a near silent micro-server. Perfect for as alternative to a NAS box at home.

Not a bad price but I'd only ever buy networked printers these days, having to have a PC/laptop on with it plugged in is a ballache.

It already sold out.
I will be getting a OCZ agility 3 SSD very shortly, about £40 ish for the 60gb version.
 
This looks good

There are some cheap NAS drives on Ebuyer too:
1 bay (diskless) £34
2 bay (diskless) £50

I was tempted by the former to use solely as the bank end for my raspi which is running XBMC as a cheaper alternative than upgrading both of HDDs in the current NAS to 2TB
 
I got a Proliant, its awesome. Really easy to use (running m$ whs2011 on mine) and blistering fast over wireless network by comparison to the Readynas Duo it replaced.
It will read the readynas drives direct with a free utility I installed
 
Anyone got any leads on good online xmas sales? I could do with getting a good quality portable HD for work.
