I was poking around TigerDirect looking at raid cards trying to solve my disc spanning problem and found this off lease desktop. $204.00 after rebate plus $40.00 shipping. Should be here by the end of the week.
512 Megs of RAM and a 2.4GHZ P4 should be a nice trade up from My 196 Meg 600Mhz PIII.
This will be my third used IBM box. I have had nothing but good luck with IBM hardware.
I am going to try plugging my old system drive, recordings drive, video card and PVR 150 into the new machine and hope the OS detects the new Mobo/CPU.
This seems like it is way too easy to work. Anyone ever tried it?
