It has been mentioned on the list before but, The HP Microservers (i think
the N40L is the current version) Is a very nice little server, Its only got
4 drive cages but also has a bay for a "DVD drive" (a 5th sata port).
They say that it is not hot swap but a friend of mine has had no problems
hot swapping (I have not been brave enough to try!).
They are quite cheep in the UK ~ B#250 and you get a B#100 re-bait so B#150.
They are also low power they have a 150W PSU. you would also need some to
upgrade the memory as it comes with 2G, I also added a dule Gbit ethernet
card to mine as it come with just 1 built in.
