The i3 is a 2130. We have 3 sticks of DDR3 - two 4GB, and one 2GB. Have tried what seems like every possible combination. Yes, we have, didn't help at all :( Unfortunately, the motherboard was purchased used via private sale, so a replacement is unlikely. My friend has just finished...

Have mine finally setup :D (I don't see the point of pictures of mine though, as I am sure everyone knows what a micro server looks like) HP N40L Micro Server 16GB DDR3 (It Works :D ) Modified BIOS 120GB Intel 510 SSD Boot drive 4x 3TB WD Red HDDs Running NAS4Free 9.1.0.1 rev 344 Drives setup...

Thanks diizzy. I ended up ordering two of the Reds online yesterday, so should have all four by early next week. Will do some testing and post the results. As for the NIC, I might put it in my ESXi host. MrDudeMan - I have read that ZFS can be pretty RAM hungry - eg 1GB RAM recommended for each...

Hi all. First time poster here. I have just recently purchased a HP N40L Microserver with the intention of using at as a NAS. So far I have installed the hacked BIOS to enable AHCI on all ports and enable Hot plug on all ports. Also loaded it up with 16GB RAM (Recognised in BIOS, ESXi 5 and...
