I'm looking for a HP MediaSmart home server. Preferably an intel model, but I would consider the amd models too.

PM me with what you have, or if you know where I can get a used/refurbished one for a good price.

Thanks

bestbuy has the ex48x single drive model for $399 up at Sunridge. That is the first intel model. Haven't seen the ex49x anywhere.

The ex48x is probably the better buy than a ex47x for sure. the celeron in the ex48x is better than the sempron 3400+ in the ex47x and the ex48x comes stock with 2GB memory. Back when I got my ex47x you could still find the 35w x2 3800+ processors but it is tough to find them now as is it tough to find the other sure fire dual core processor that has a low enough tdp to work in the ex47x, the BE2300.

Awesome! Thanks for the info.

The ex485 with a Celeron E3200 swap would be perfect! I'll have to grab one if they still have it.
