I installed some SMART tools to read the power on hours of the HD... it comes to 4.7 months which is pretty much as long as I've had the server. I didn't expect the HD would be second hand as it's a 160GB SATA, if it was as old as I suspect the motherboard is then it would have cost a fortune when it was new.
