I have been contemplating to pick up a pre-configured HP MediaSmart Server or to build my own. After some research I found that the MediaSmart Server is limited to configuration. Meaning I would have to purchase it with only 512MB and either 500GB or 1TB, then upgrade it after I received it. Which is a waste of my time. Not to mention that I want a beefier processor...I am talking Core 2 Quad power! Anyhow I felt a burning sensation and no it is not what you're thinking...in my pocket so I spec'd my own system and here it is:
Shuttle SG31G2 (Black)
Intel 2.4GHz C2Q Q6600 8MB 775 Quad Core Processor
4GB DDR2 800 PC-6400 Dual Channel 240-Pin Memory
2x - Western Digital WD10EACS 1TB SATA 3.0Gb/s 16 MB Cache
Samsung CD/DVD Burner (I know I wanted the Blueray burner too!)
2x - KINGWIN 15.74" SATA Data & Power combo cable
Arctic Silver 5 Thermal Compound
Microsoft Windows Home Server 32 Bit 1 Pack
Here are a few pics of the Shuttle, once it is pieced together I will add more pics.
