£114 HP ML350p G8 - Restoration + NAS Build

In this video, I go over restoring a recent eBay find of an HP ML350p G8.

With my current storage server being too noisey and not providing enough expansion, the HP ML350p G8 is a great option for me that provides lots of expansion ability, great power efficiency and enough bays to get by for my 5x 1TB Crucial MX500 SSD's.

The condition of this isn't great, so let's restore it and get it back in working order!
