I have a PowerCenter 150 that I use mainly as a backup server running
Retrospect backup software. It backs up my laptop and my wife's laptop
over our small network. Right now the PowerCenter is running OS 9.2.2
and Retrospect desktop 5.1. Both my wife's and my laptop are running
OS 10.3.9. I would like to upgrade the Powercenter using parts off of
ebay (ie., G3 processor at 400-500Mhz, ATI video card and some more
RAM). My question is: Is it practical to upgrade the PowerCenter to OS
X so that I can run the same OS as my laptops and therefore make
backups easier? Cost is an issue because I don't want to spend lots of
money on a computer that is primarily a backup server. I already have
some large internal and external drives that are attached and being
used as backup media. Would I be better off just buying a mac mini for
backup purposes (more expensive route)?
TIA
Chris
