I just added 400GB's to my total storage. I purchased a Dual 2.8 Xeon 2U server with 2GB of RAM and 400GB of disk space off eBay for $300 USD :D

Just subtracted 80GB from mine (temporarily hopefully), Windows is having a few problems picking up the hardware. :(

I'm more worried about the data than the reduction in potential storage :lol:
