HP Microserver, got there too late, BUT it says "Please check back soon"

[One2go]

I saw this deal but wasn't sure about it when I finished my research they were out of stock 

 

This was the deal for the HP ProLiant MicroServer but it DID NOT state the model N40L but did list the same HP part #: 658553-001

What is the product difference between the above offer and the following offer:

http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/us/en/sm/WF05a/15351-15351-4237916-4237918-4237917-4248009.html

 

The only difference I could detect is the processor, but could not find anything in detail.

Any comments if this is a decent deal if it should come back?

These are available on Ebay for $230-250 with free shipping - just search for the HP MicroServer

 

The difference can be in the size of the included hard drive but it is 160-250GB so you will remove this one anyway.

The ones he linked are the newer model with the  1.5GHz CPU, 250GB drive and 2 gigs of ram (1 stick).

the different part numbers are probably just that one is a promo part#. they appear to be the exact same PC. HP does that with desktops too.

 

If they had more at $75 off I would pick one up as a Christmas gift. that is not a bad price..

it is $350ish at newegg http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16859107052

In the data sheets & from the website it says for the promo version regarding the Processor:

Processor: AMD Dual Core 1.5GHz Athlon II

 

For the $349 version it says regarding processor in the PDF data sheet:

Processor: AMD Turion™ II Neo N40L (1.5GHz)

 

But then on Overview of the $349 version regarding processors it says:

Processor family:

AMD Athlon™ II

AMD Turion™ II

 

I could not find any difference regarding these two processors, but I presume that either one will do for an UnRaid server. This leaves just one remaining hick-up, how to combine two shares from two different servers into one share. Otherwise this will just be a test box for preclearing drives and testing Beta versions. I am dying to find a solution for the four 3TB Hitachi drives that I bought a few months ago for $109.
