    Note: the options you add will be discounted by 50% - so adding 16GB memory option at £40 will add £20 to total price. At this price, its actually not bad to get them to fit it.

    The storage options are really weird. 1st drive is...a hard disk...!? 2nd drive...a stupdily expensive SSD (but we don't know if its SATA or NVMe). 3rd option...the same SSDs but half the price...? If you choose only the 3rd option...will they disallow that during build...will they fit it in a not ideal place (like SATA port with cable)...or supply a low quality drive...? Probably need to spend 2 hours on phone to try to find out. EDIT: this link hotukdeals.com/com…383 shows the base panel comes off and the two memory slots and two NVMe SSD slots, so these are super-easy to fit. And in the main compartment there is a SATA SSD drive caddy.

    It is possible to get your own SSD drives & easy to fit, though you do need to be confident with messing about inside laptops/PCs. And I have no idea how it affects the warranty. You can buy 512GB SSDs for around £20 to £30 and 1TB ones for £35 to £70, all depending on quality and offers. (edited)

    £344.51 if you choose this config without Windows preinstalled.

    This spec should be good for most, see the sidebar for additionals and substitutions. Remove the OS and install it yourself, the 256GB SSD is quite cheap so I've added that, same with the WiFi+BT card as no hassle installing antennae then, same with the 16GB RAM as it's only £20 extra and about the same if you buy and install yourself, remove the cheap k/b+mouse unless you need them and you can get it for this:

    The price does not include storage or WiFi/Bluetooth. These can be added but it's cheaper to DIY.

    Not really. It's 50% off so the Wifi card would be a £10 upgrade

    Are there 10GbE add-ons for these machines? Would make a great proxmox cluster, with ceph over a high speed link.
