As previously posted by @A8smith in April - The £55 cashback deal on the HP Gen8 Microserver has returned and expires 31/05/16.
All of the details are pretty well documented on this, this is just a bump to let people know it has been extended again and is in stock.

But you know that running XP means that ISIS have won? or have I got leaving the EU mixed up with obsolete operating systems again? I get so confused :smile:

Good price. Just needs 4GB more memory + SSD + HDD to make it function.
Oh and a windows server OS if you don't want Linux.

For a server the CPU really doesn't need an upgrade. This dual core would manage, unless you want to virtualise multiple servers on this one server. In which case this is the wrong server for that task.

It certainly does not need another 4gb to "function" mine runs with 2gb to spare. The minimum to make this function is a USB stick (for xpenology) a HDD (for Linux). Windows is very bloated so 4gb will run although it could do with more.

I use mine as a file server and CCTV server Chucked on windows XP and blue iris software and it runs a treat.
