Followed Eskro's advice on this mini server (http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=109453). Now ready for "The Box" to go with it!
Eskro found this ZBOX ID82-U (http://www.provantage.com/zotac-zbox-id8...OTC0C7.htm)
He also found the ZBOX ID82 PLUS - U version (http://www.provantage.com/zotac-zbox-id8...OTC0C8.htm)
Just needed a sanity check before I click the "BUY" button.
With ZBOX ID82-U I will need 3 things to go with it
1) Ram
2) Hard drive
3) Operating System (Need Win 7 because of Netflix)
4) I believe remote control comes with it Not sure? Can someone confirm.
Questions:
1) Ram....any ideas? Pros, Cons...Good Bad...etc?
2) Hard drive. I already have a Cruical 64GB M4 SSD
3) Win 7. On this issue my question is I already have a Win 7 x64 DVD. Can't I just purchase a Win 7 x64 LICENSE and use my current Win 7 x64 to physically install? Or is it better to just have a 2nd Win 7 DVD?
And I just thought of an issue....The XBOX ID-82 U Doesn't have any sort of DVD drive....ahhhh....how to install from Win 7 x64 DVD?
Thank you gents
