Mr_Smartepants Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 I have had my MediaSmart server EX490 shut off and collecting dust since I got my N54L on-line a year ago. I'm not sure how much to sell it for so I'm open to offers. If no reasonable offers are forthcoming, off to the "Bay of E" it goes. I know there are a few folks who like to hack on these older servers. I had it configured and set up to give to my brother but in the end we set him up with an online backup service. It's still configured that way, so I need to pull all the drives out and wipe the OS drive for shipping. The BIOS has been modified to unlock the SATA options. As far as I know, it still works fine but I'll make sure by installing WHS2011 on it fresh before any money changes hands. I have the original box, manuals & WHSv1 discs for it. It also will come with the original 1TB drive. Currently it has a CPU upgrade (E5200) and max RAM (4GB) installed but I kept the original Celeron CPU & RAM. I will consider splitting the upgrades up if someone wants only those. I have my customized WHS2011 install iso around here somewhere with WHS 2011 (drivers/updates/license) which I can put on a thumbdrive (if desired). The thumbdrive would have the text file (cfg.ini) which can be modified for server name and admin password as needed. I would prefer to sell it as an entire lot. PayPal preferred but other options considered. USPS shipping will be at cost (~$25) for the box with the server. CONUS & UK shipping only. Please PM with offers.
