My 4 year old Intel SS4200 with WHS v1 just started giving me trouble. I boot it up and it will slowly start up and give me a solidly lit Blue Power LED - but within a about a minute the machine will shut itself off, so I don't have any time to troubleshoot using the WHS Console or Remote Connection. I have a PCIE-E 1x 2 16x flexible riser and a cheap 16x card coming this weekend - hopefully I can see what is going on. Of course this is likely a hardware problem - power supply memory, even the power switch - so I am starting a contingency plan.
I welcome any suggestions on what is going on and how to fix it, but my primary question is this. Can I buy a NOS SS4200-E box and just remove the DOM, insert my drives and expect it to work? Granted, my problem could be a drive, but I suspect not.
Thanks
