First off, I have not tried this particular project. However, as a genaral rule consider this: If you are streaming audio over a network, then the overall performance is not limited to the HD capacity, RAM, or over CPU power, but the entire system. Anything from the number of stream you are serving to the network set up willl have an effect....
Then again, you can't never have too much RAM(meaning that running ar 16MB of RAM may not be a good idea)

Sorry...I should have been a bit more accurate in my description. I have been looking at a few projects but one project called Netjuke (netjuke.sourceforge.net), which is a cross-platfrom music database that runs on MySQL and Postgre.
I think that is what I was meaning in my explanation. That I would store the physical files elsewhere but maintain the details and some sort of link in the database itself. If I am not mistaken I think that is how Netjuke works...but I could be wrong.
Any suggestions for RAM and HDD space or anything else I shoud consider? Juan Alberto Cirez wrote:
Hi Cam,
I use postgress(been using it since 1996, but not on the same box) and it should not be a problem on a P90 for a home intranet...I just don't see whay you'd want to store the *mp3(raw binary) into the database(Databases are not filesystems), a simpler use would be to store the URL for the files on the database and store the actual files somewhere in the system...
