I have a refurbished Snap Server 520 that was initially working just fine, but when I shipped it to my colo something happened and it no longer provides power to the drive bays. the motherboard receives power fine, though. Anyway, I already made a FedEx claim so I am now looking to part out the server.

I have several auctions on ebay right now, but if anyone wants to make an offer from the forums, please do.

I have original Seagate Barracuda ES.2 750GB hard drives preloaded with Guardian OS 4 on them. They were never used beyond an initial bootup when i got the unit. From what I have read here, it may be possible to upgrade your Snap to use these drives, but I am now certain, so do your own research first.

I also have 2 power supplies for this series Snap, and also the chassis/motherboard, etc. complete with rails and display panel and caddys. Everything but the drives and power supplies.

Here are the auction links:
