      Yes mate :). We are going mental at the moment, got to clear some storage space at the warehouses and the best way is to give ozbargain a crazy offer. Limited time and stock - Microserver lovers ALERT :).

  • Kaboda on 28/05/2015 - 11:03

    I've read a lot about upgrading the processor on the G8 has anyone here had any personal experience doing this ?

    • pinoy on 28/05/2015 - 11:31

      Yes a while back. Hard to find the CPUs. Got mine on eBay US. Using the g8 micro as a cheap backup vm failover system for a client. Works well with the upgraded CPU for well over a year now. Trying to remember the CPU was a Xeon E3-1265LV2. Had to use a different heatsink and some other minor mods. offcourse U void your microserver warranty when U go this path. Pretty worth it with the significant performance gain.

      • Samwise on 28/05/2015 - 11:44

        Wish I could have gotten my hands on that CPU! Couldn't find them anywhere at a reasonable price when I was looking recently

      • Kaboda on 28/05/2015 - 12:50

        Thanks for that reply ! There was a shop in Perth that said they had a few upgraded to that Xeon server for sale. I couldn't remember the name for the life of me. Wasn't cheap they quoted me 800 to 900.

        With this deal DIY would be way cheaper. Thought about this for a Plex Media Box.

    • Samwise on 28/05/2015 - 11:41

      Hard to find cheap Xeon's suitable for the G8's LGA1155 socket as these CPU's are no longer manufactured, but you'll find one if you look hard enough.

      I settled on a quad core Xeon E3-1230v2 after I bought my second microserver (G8) from the last SE sale, but I need to tone down some settings as it's power rating is a little higher than whats recommended for the G8 heatsink. Not for the fainthearted but others have done it successfully and with a reasonable selection of CPU's… if you google you shall find…

    Is the Samsung Pro 16GB MicroSD $9.95 a good deal??

    • Alzori on 28/05/2015 - 11:40
      +3

      Short answer: yes, if 16Gb is enough for you.

      Common deals are for the EVO 16Gb (40mb/s read, ~10mb/s write) at ~$8-10. Since this is the Pro (70mb/s read, 20mb/s write) for a similar price, I'd say it is good. There's a new set of Pro MicroSD's out with like 70mb/s write to go with the 70mb/s read, but I think they'd cost a fair bit more than this and I don't think there is a 16Gb model of those.

    Still haven't received mouse and no tracking details available from this deal: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/194314
    ShoppingExpress have had very poor customer service so far, really disappointed as they seem to offer decent local prices. Very let down by their customer service.
    Not just ranting, I want Ozbargainers to be aware that orders can be quite delayed, and not to expect a response from support.

    • Store RepShoppingExpress @ Shopping Express on 28/05/2015 - 11:55

      Can you please PM me your order ID?
      We don't have backorder for this mouse and it should be dispatched long ago.
      Also can you provide me the ticket id that you sent?

        Hi SE,

        Sent through the details.
        Order placed/paid 16 May
        Ticket submitted 21st May

        Your website states 2-5 day delivery to VIC, it hasn't even been shipped yet
        Your website states a 24-48hr response time for support tickets, I never received a response.

        I've finally been able to get onto SE on the phone and get a response that my order is now shipping today. Frustrating that I won't get it by when I needed it. It's a little bit ironic that you won't post it express, considering your name :)

        Apologies that I sound rude, but I'm just trying to get my order, advise SE that this wasn't up to par with many other retailers on Ozbargain, and advise the Ozbargain public of the issue.

        • Store RepShoppingExpress @ Shopping Express on 28/05/2015 - 13:24

          Hi Adamiam,

          Have replied your PM.
          Main issue caused by incorrect flagging from paypal for your order. We are aiming to dispatch your order by today.

    Just so people know, the 16GB MicroSD here isn't the newer faster deal PCByte ran yesterday.

    But it's still pretty fast and better than the EVO card.

    • Thrifty McGifty on 28/05/2015 - 13:29

      You're right, 70MB/s versus 90MB/s. Does anyone know the random read/write speeds of this one? I'm looking for a card for Raspberry Pi & Cubox-i4.

      • Store RepShoppingExpress @ Shopping Express on 28/05/2015 - 13:44
        +2

        Read up to 70mb/s write up to 20mb/s.

        • Thrifty McGifty on 28/05/2015 - 14:11

          Thanks, but that's sequential read/write. I'm looking for 4K random read/write speeds.

        • Click_It on 28/05/2015 - 17:27

          @Orionn:

          Yeah decent 4K reads will make a huge difference for the intended use in Raspberry Pi. I tried finding out from Amazon for you but it seems they've gotten rid of the sale of these older cards. The feedback probably lives in (merged into one of the other cards) but it'll be a nightmare to find.

        • Thrifty McGifty on 28/05/2015 - 18:21

          @Click_It:
          Thanks. I took a punt and ordered one. It probably wouldn't be noticeably slower than the other 90MB/s one, but would be noticeably faster than the Class 4 ones I currently have.

    Hey guys, is it worthwhile me researching if the HP G8 going to be decent to use as a HTPC/Plex server?
    Or would it be cheaper/less problems to just build one from scratch on a budget.

    • edwills on 28/05/2015 - 15:15

      I would build from scratch as if you are resourceful enough you could build a Media Server with an i3 CPU and alot more flexibility/ upgradability for a comparable price.
