Do those things even have SATA ports (required by most, if not all, SSD)?I bought an HP Microserver to serve as a low power/quite file server/web browsing general office machine to replace my old Dell 8250 Pentium IV circa 2003. However, rather than retire the thing I am loading a fresh install of Linux Mint Debian on it and browsing around for an SSD to give it some more life. The HP sits in the corner waiting to be installed as a pure file server.
Anyone else unreasomably hold onto very old hardware which you actually use every day?
That said, I'm still holding onto an AthlonXP-M laptop from 2003 as well as a Canon flatbed scanner from 2001. It's heavy as brick and slow as snail but it's the only device (with 32-bit OS) at home that can talk to the scanner.
