    Recertified, but I'd still choose this over that Netgear Diskless System. This has way more options and upgrades.
    Figure that WHS is almost $100 your getting the hardware pretty cheap.

    wow. this is a really good deal. especially with the newer update installed on it.

    I just paid over 500 for the ex490....should have purchased this for what I needed it for.

    Not sure what updates you are referring to #3 but the reviews say there are issues with 64 bit PCs and Vista so how well will this with Windows 7 PCs?

    Does anyone know if there are hardware differences with the EX475? Newegg is sold out of the ex475 for $299.

    #6, ex470 and 475 are identical hardware-wise. The 475 just comes with two hard drives instead of one.
