Unfortunately getting my money back from eBay isn't an option , after carefully reading his advert it stated that there was no warranty , this was a hard lesson to learn.

I take it you guys are in the States ? getting second hand snap servers here in oz is very hard to do , I jagged getting my 1100 cheaply and 4000s are rarely seen which is a pity as I'd really like to turn my pc off but still access my files over the network.

I'm glad you mentioned the drive size limit Phoenix as I was just about to bid for a 4000 unit (actually a re-badged Dell705N) and I thought that because it had software 4.0.860 it wold allow me to put 300gig drives in it , so Im glad as you have just saved me buying another unit which wouldn't suit me

I have tried all connector and drive combos to see if the unit would work any differently btw , no luck unfortunately.

Looks like I'll be contacting Northwest for a new mobo , I hope that the OS is on them and that they will allow me to arrange the courier to collect it.

thanks for your help guys and if you need me to send over some of our lovely Vegemite give me an email

Mike.
