Cheap server?
I wanted to set up a JBOD in an old PC PIII as a server but I didn't realize
it was a PII. - I want a cheap PC -I have all the components so I want to replace the motherboard & Chip - is it worth it & RAM (512 ok). Any Recomendations? If I start from scratch - I need a full tower for Multiple HD's (how many can I fit & Power) How much Power do I need for say 8 sata HD's 400 or 500 watt? All else can be on Motherboard. Thanks Joe |

What's a JBOD? Buy an external RAID tower.
