868616 2010-03-24 11:24:00 After spending the last 2 nights surfing the net and looking at videos, I have ordered the hp storageworks x510 data vault . Just looking at hdd's for it now.

Any ideas on what hdd's to look at. Wanting 1tb and bigger hdd's. I think 4x 1tb hdd's would be sweet.

Thanks

868617 2010-03-25 11:55:00 Right I have ordered.

1x HP Storageworks x510 data vault NAS server, 1tb hdd included.

4x Western Digital Caviar Green WD10EARS Hard Disk Drive, 1000GB, 5400-7200rpm, 64MB Cache, SATA-2,

Total of: $1,722.47

Now I have to sort out what parts im going to get to build my system with to set beside the HP NAS server.

So I have $2278 for my system build.

868618 2010-03-25 19:23:00 You'll like the unit, they run headless, no KB/Mouse/monitor, you control then Via a connector software from other PC's on a LAN or connected to them. Bit of Guff (www.homeserverhacks.com) - one of my WHS while it does have a KB/Mouse/LCD connected via a KMV switch (server sits under the bench), they are never used apart from the real odd time I have to do some maintenance on it. Normally it just "works". wainuitech (129)
868619 2010-03-25 19:32:00 Yeh I read reviews and watched lots of videos about them . They look easy to use and are small . :) I seen there is a addon part you can get that plugs into the mobo and gives you a VGA mouse and keyboard ports . Dont need it .

What you using your unit for?
