About Me:
I have been working and building computers for 10 years and this pc was traded in towards the purchase of a new pc. After inspection it has been upgraded and tested with PRIME95 for hours on end.

Is that P4 478 or 775 pin? (sure you can get this through CPUz)

Whats the interface of the Video card?

Is there a limit to how big of a secondary Harddrive I can put in? Im looking to make a server out of it since it is 478 pin.
Also, how many free sata ports are there? I may want to upgrade to HD4670 and put a Bluray drive into it for movies.

Wolfking,
I am not aware of any size limitation on the hard drive, to the best of my knowledge this would be sofware based not hardware. (Unless the HDD controller limits this as well?)
It is installed in the empty 3.5in tray above the floppy drive, you would need to remove the 3.5in floppy drive to install an additional hard drive.
The motherboard has 2 sata ports, one is currently open.

Yea, you can upgrade the card, the power supply is strong and has the pci-e plug etc. As for a the Blu-ray drive, you will need to figure out your setup since I'd imagine a blu-ray drive would be sata based but you only have 2 ports total, so 2 hard drives + 1 Blu-ray might not work for you.
