A neighbour who moved out a good few months back left some stuff in our garage, one of the items is this server here.

Now, I'm not convinced she'll ever be collecting this stuff and even if she did, I can't imagine her using this (it wasn't hers and she was using it as a seat!).

I'm tempted to have a look inside, I have never had anything to do with servers (or networks generally) so I'm not sure what I'll find...

What I want to do is set up some large storage for media files, maybe investigate making a simple PVR for recording TV progs.

The important thing is to satisy my inner geek and to not spend any money.
