Just wondering about a value for this box as the auctions I've checked online don't seem to be giving much away just now.

Dual 1.8GHz G5
Dual 1TB HDDs
4Gb RAM
Airport Extreme card

Case is a bit grubby and as it was in a server room, wheels were fitted to it which can be removed. Don't laugh :)

Any ideas?

Mac2Sell says $1430.

Personally, I'd say ~$500 for the G5, plus the current cost of two SATA 1 TB drives, plus the cost of 4 GB RAM. Is that the max for this G5?

Older G5 1.8 DP supports up to 8 GB.

Newer, up to 4 GB.

Yes, 4Gb is the max for this model due to the number of memory slots on it.
