I also found out the Lenovo IdeaPad S10 has some serious heat issues, so now I'm definitely not hitting the checkout button. If it isn't one thing, it's a another, don't they check these things. Don't u like money Lenovo?

@Alexandre Emond
I don't mind upgrading the RAM myself, I won't let MS sucker me out of getting max performance out of my product(atom N270 can handle up to 2GB). I heard the Lenovo IdeaPad S10 had two 2 memory slots, but as it turns out only one is user accessible( max 1GB slot) and the other is 512MB soldered to the motherboard.

I was seriously looking forward to this, but without RAID I don't see the point. That means you would have to mirror everything..

I would like to get Windows 2003 Server running on it. (NO need to talk about piracy, we get it free from the University here... NOT a trial version)

Windows Home Server uses the Drive Extender for data redundancy.

You can grow the storage pool dynamically using disks of different sizes and different connection methods.

The platform is designed to be as simple as possible for people who want it to "just work" without any knowledge of RAID.]]>Oct 18th 2008 1:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/17/tranquil-pcs-sqa-5h-home-server-5-bays-atom-330-the-works/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/17/tranquil-pcs-sqa-5h-home-server-5-bays-atom-330-the-works/

"This SQA-Ex will also connect to any other Home Server that has a port multiplier enabled eSATA port, ie the HP MediaSmart Server EX470."

Sounds like it might work by itself, and it's a mere £250. Still not fantastic, but much better.]]>Oct 20th 2008 11:06AM
