Week Six - Hardware Quotations


Hardware Quotations

My goal this week was to find some overall quotations and costings for Mrs. Carter, because she had now hardware whats so ever I had to get costings for three computers, monitors, mice, keyboards, printer and any further accessories, the main focus of this was the costings for hardware.

Computer: Stone Desktop i3-4130 3.40GHZ, 4GB RAM, 500GB HDD




Monitor: Iiyama ProLite E2083HSD-81 20" LED DVI Monitor 



Printer: HP DeskJet 2620 All-in-One Wireless Inkjet Printer


Keyboard & Mouse: Advent C112 Keyboard & Mouse Set


Wireless Adapter: TP-Link Archer T1U USB Wireless Adapter AC 450, Single-band



So after finding out the quotes for the hardware we will need to carry out this project, I sent me results back to Mrs. Carter and then she chose the following...

Computer: Stone Desktop i3-4130 3.40GHZ, 4GB RAM, 500GB HDD - She was happy with the RAM, Storage and Processor compared to the other two machines I had recommended.

Monitor: Iiyama ProLite E2083HSD-81 20" LED DVI Monitor - Mrs. Carter was impressed with the pricing, she wasn't really interested in the size or output of the display.

Printer: HP DeskJet 2620 All-in-One Wireless Inkjet Printer - After looking at the spec of all three printers, Mrs. Carter was happy that the all in one was ideal, it wasn't really going to be heavily used anyway and was impressed with price and compatibility.

 Keyboard & Mouse: Advent C112 Keyboard & Mouse Set - With the Keyboard and mouse, she told me to source the cheapest and most user friendly devices. I found a cheap set from Currys which I has used before.

Wireless Adapter: TP-Link Archer T1U USB Wireless Adapter AC 450, Single-band - Since we only plan to have a small layout I felt that going down a wireless route was important, I told her my intentions and was happy to proceed, with this item again she told me to recommend one and go with it.

So after a week or so of finding the hardware, sending the details to Mrs. Carter and receiving her feedback. We now have a foundation of hardware I can work with, next week I will be looking into and pricing of software.
