Uh, by /proc/cpuinfo it's a Socket AM2 Athlon 4850e, which isn't too awfully old.

Socket A was pre-Athlon64, and definitely not capable of 8GB of RAM.....

The motherboard he referenced is an  ASUS M3N78-EM, which is a current product at NewEgg, among other vendors.

That's a thought.....

Palimpsest (Disk Utility) includes a utility to run SMART tests; launch Disk Utility, select the disk, click on 'SMART Data', then select the test you'd like.  It also lists the SMART information from the drive.
