Lenovo ThinkSystem ST45 V3 Tower Server

Lenovo ThinkSystem ST45 V3 Tower Server

AMD 4124P is just a 4c CPU that’s slower than a MacBook Air, and retails for only $149 USD.

16GB DDR5 costs around $40 USD.

This thing doesn’t even come with any storage! And expansion is limited to start with!

Subtracting the above — 549 - 149 - 40 = $360 for mb+case+PSU.

This server has just a single RJ45 (even then it’s terribly outdated at 1Gbps), only a few USB3 Gen 1 (5Gbps) ports on the front, and the USB on the back are actually just USB2.

Sorry, but in what world is this MB+case+PSU worth $360?

$549 is less unreasonable than the prior $609.99, but nowhere near a good value.
