Uh Bruce,
I 've never had that big an ego and I would rather as few people go through me as possible!
Just use the website and phone number previously posted and go directly through Eaegis.com yourself.
As soon as they have parts in I am more than willing (and hopefully a few of you American users will join me) in getting parts at no profit to people in Europe that need them.
I just like helping people out but even I have a life and wouldn't mind if others would help me out get the parts over there.

Just use the website and phone number previously posted and go directly through Eaegis.com yourself. Well how about at least posting a part # or other information so we know what to ask for when contacting them? I've already searched their website (as have others) without any luck, and other posts here have also asked if there's a part # or any other information we need to know. Or is there a particular person we should talk to when we call who knows what we're calling about? I think eagis would appreciate it if a bunch of us all called and already knew the details of what we're looking for. It'd be easier both for us and for them. There's absolutely no reason why basic information like this can't be provided here. There doesn't appear to be any indication anywhere on their website that they sell any N5200 parts other than empty trays and spare power supplies. I'd rather not waste their time or mine calling them up and going around in circles trying to figure this out if that time can be saved by you providing the basic information that you apparently already have and all of us could use. I'll call them and deal with the hassle of figuring everything out with them if necessary, but I was hoping you'd be considerate enough to help us all out by simply posting the information we've asked for. |

oi..... i just emailed 'em.....
if they don't get back to me by tomorrow i'll call and post the details....
*EDIT*
wow that was quick, i go to lunch and the email is waiting for me....
ok, so i emailed eaegis and told them about my two n5200b PROs, one of which has the bad motherboard.....
they don't advertise the MOBOs on their site due to manufacturer stipulations... whatever that means.... but if you call them up (number is on the site) you can order part no. 5200MB 225+shipping

Thanks again guys.

In my case with the BR, they are waiting for DOMS, that's the whole hold up.
Hopefully soon.

Fed-ex dropped the board off today....
mobo, CPU, DOM,
NO MEM
so now i have to find some ram that'll work with this thing....
*edit*
pulled a 512MB kingston KVR DDR333 stick out of an old PC,
replaced the motherboard.... totally toolless, it was awesome...
took longer to blow the dust out of the case....
back up config, power down, remove the trays,
three thumb screws, unplug the back panel's fan,
two ribbon cable connectors from the bottom of the board,
unplug the backplane, slide the old out, in with the new,
reconnect the BP, two ribbon cables, fan, three screws....
reboot, update firmware (.08 -> .09), power down,
throw drives in, boot, reload config
good to go!
machine screams..... 1GB stick in the future....

I was doing some research on the differences between the N5200 and the N5200 P o and smallnetbuilder.com said they didn't see much if any of an advantage in transfer rates or anything else with the beefier hardware of the Pro.
What advantage are we really getting for $225+ ?

I called eaegis.com and they said since they end of life'd the N5200 Pro the motherboard is now $325 plus shipping.
Anyway we can get a cheap mobo?
