An SSD and passive heatsink will go along way. You could find some redundant PSUs as well. One problem with 3rd market equipment is getting one with the correct software version to support what you need. We noticed our AS5350 couldn't handle CNAM with the IOS it came with. Alex Balashov wrote:

I don't disagree, and there's much to be said about an appliance versus build your own. I like appliances.
