I just going to plan a new sambaserver and ask myself which hardware is suitable for the server. The server will act as PDC and hold 100GB of files for approx. 120 clients in a standard office-environment (mostly office-files with some mp3 underneath .. ;) I guess that CPU is not my mainconcern and I should go for a fast RAID-controller and much RAM. Is 2GB much better than 1GB or would 4GB speed things up a lot? I know that noone can give exact recommandations but maybe you can tell me about the bottlenecks in your systems and what your systems actually are. thnx, peter -- mag. peter pilsl goldfisch.at IT- & dataconsulting +43 650 3574035 pilsl@goldfisch.at
