Just added memory, Hard drive, and Windows.

A 250gb solid state drive and 4 gigs of RAM and it was ready to go

readerI used a Silicone Power 240GB SSD hard drive and 8 GB DDR3 ram, installed Win 8.1 x64, then installed the drivers from the included CD.No issues whatsoever installing Win 8.1 UEFI from USB 3.0 Stick

no problem i put 8 gb of ram and a 120 gb soild state hard drive in it it is

After updating the BIOS, I installed the OS on a small hard drive and configured it with no issues

You cannot simply use your own copy of Windows OEM and a portable DVD drive.

Solid State Drive (SV300S37A/120G)I have yet to see this peak past 20% CPU usage

and there is NO HARD DRIVE installed, even though was purchased with the 32GB SSD Windows 10 option.

tb hard drives hooked up to the usb 3.0 amd store all my video on them

It turned out that if I had a large about of bandwidth coming through the box over WiFi and going to a USB3 hard drive, all those components working together and generating heat is enough to cause the system to shut down

The hard drive failed and I was faced with finally having to deal with moving it to new hardware and supported software (FreePBX)

Can only say good things about this bare bones (no hard drive or ram included

I did have a 250 gigabyte solid state drive on hand and 4 gigs of ddr3l ram as well

Finally, do not use a mechanical hard drive since it generates not only noise but also a nonnegligible amount of heat over time.
