what an absolute nightmare it was
the power supply died on the server ... new one was out of my price remit and its an end of life power supply
I found a similar server but on first inspection it was the wrong connector for as different type of disk,
I then tried to install software on the new server but it wouldnt take the software ... i then found the old power supply from the server had a disk/power convertor on the connection so I flipped it onto the new power supply and hashed it together and brought the old one back
for how long I don't know the server is ages old now at least over 6 years the Hard drive has already been replaced and now the power supply its only a matter of time before the motherboard or memory dies
I have bought a virtual server and I am contemplating doing some sort of cron job to back up this site to the virtual server somehow
