OK, I have been researching, saving my pennies, and I'm finally ready to replace my dead mobo to make a dedicated server. I am finding the low power, minimal frills C7 CPU boards to be very interesting. In my search of these forums, I find only one person who says they are running on a C7 board and he said it was plenty fast. Anyone else with some input on the subject?
Here's the board I am looking at: http://www.clubit.com/product_detail.cfm?itemno=A4842001# My library consists of about 700 CDs ripped to flac with cover art sitting in the same folder. I will be serving to an SB3 and an SBR (courtesy of the beta program!). Music is currently on a nearly full 250 GB PATA HDD, but will probably be replaced with a 500GB drive soon. Replacement will probably be SATA. My current backup is on a 250GB USB drive. I will use some flavor of Linux on the server. Right now the old systems OS is on an old 40GB PATA drive, but I may opt to run the new server off an USB memory stick.
