ANYONE, feel free to jump in and correct (if needed) or add to any information I provide here.

Well, here is some, maybe less than helpful, information. But, it is what I can provide.

Last I checked, and it has been a while, a SOFTWARE ONLY contract was like $850 for a Snap 4500. How much they would charge you to take your unit and reinstall after that is your best guess.

A 1TB Snap 4500 with a CURRENT GOS is worth about $900+ on eBay, and with GOS 4.2.x or above, at least $700.

A 1TB Snap 4500 without an OS (like yours) is worth about $150 maximum on eBay. I just saw one with the OS wiped sell last week for a little less than that on eBay and it was in pretty good condition.

Some people in the past who had a couple blank servers, swapped me a server for the install. Etc, etc, etc...
