Good price. Shame they have cut corners so much since replacing the ML110 and removed the proper ILO card in favour of IntelAMT and ditched the front drive bays and Dual NIC's
Personally I'd look for a nearly new ML110 G7 instead....

Usual HUKD convention / expectation is to state purchase price in deal title.

Agreed on most fronts, but for just over £100 the spec you get is fairly decent, I also believe it has 6 Sata ports unlike some other servers in this price range and therefore less messing about if you want to utilize more than 4 ports.
I've been through a few operating systems using a few different PCs as the starting point for a NAS (including FreeNAS http://www.freenas.org/) but I've settled on Open Media Vault (http://www.openmediavault.org/?page_id=4) which is simply configured through your internet browser, once installed.
I found this guide very helpful as a starting point for installing and setting up OMV:
