Hi tritorius, has been fixed now. Thanks for pointing it for us :)
I guess the $10 discount is good for people who don't need the 250GB hard drive, although I think the hard drive is worth more than $10.
"itspot"
yes it is
doesnt have harddisk?
where this server came from suddenly every shops sell them today. still in production by HP?
There must be a container ship full of these stuck in Port Botany, so they must be selling them all out before it sinks ;)
no these are discontinued. HP kicked themselves when they realised how fast these flew off the shelves with the cashback they offered
I will possibly end up with 6 of these by the end of the day if everyone keeps going…
I just went 'Holy crap, 3rd N40L deal of the day'
that is what i was thinking…. anyone tried to see if HT will price beat? ;)
Would one of these be good as an external storage unit and media server, or is it overkill?
That's the main reason these are popular, low cost, low power. Does as good of a job as more expensive units.
Both! Shove a hdmi graphics card in and it's superb, or a cheap USB sound card and use VGA to your telly
I got one, shoved a Xonar DGX and using the VGA. Works perfectly as a low power server + HTPC.
Around 27W idle.
As for storage, it'll take 3x4tb plus 1x2 with no mods….you can get 5x 4tb in with a little playong
You can do 6x4TB if you REALLY wanted to with the N40L, by using the ESATA to SATA & the ODD SATA Port.
does the esata on this support port multipliers? Ive got a 4 bay enclosure with an esata.
I remember reading in Overclockers.com.au that it doesn't. But also in that very long thread (100s of pages) I think someone got a card for the pci-e slot that let you hook up an enclosure.
Cheaper than Shipping Express by $5 but this has no hard disk.
If you can pickup from HT you can save $5 for a no hard disk version.
And for the uninitiated, I would suggest researching this company on Whirlpool and other previous HP Microserver bargain threads. Just saying.

Very good advice indeed!
HT shipping to Tas was $47 so not for all.
Pretty sure I said pickup.
Sorry, missed that :-)
Ideal for small and medium businesses
But … this isn't a real server, you said so yourselves.
I guess it's whatever it needs to be when you're trying to flog stuff eh? :)
Great deal, but shipping to NSW/VIC is coming in at $15.95
