If you read the thread you created, the answer would be oh-so-obviousAMD RULES said:ok...thanks for the info
Would an AThlon 64 3200+ with a gig of DDR2 ram be quick enough for a file server?
lol....ndruw said:If you read the thread you created, the answer would be oh-so-obvious![]()
depends how you are serving files...AMD RULES said:lol....![]()
But my question is would Dual core be a waste of money for a file server?
AMD RULES said:what would be better
64 3200+ with gig of ram
or
Sempron with 2GB Ram?
for a server?
really..hmmm.... does 2GB help over faster cpu?Xilikon said:IMHO, go for Sempron with 2 Gb since memory is more useful and Semprons are not wimpy when it come to speed.
AMD RULES said:wow...nice![]()
fine..but this is a forum...i understand...sorry manXilikon said:Can you limit the replies here since it's considered spam to reply to each and every server setup listed.
omfg that must be so loud, and it probably uses more power than all 3 of my computers put togetherNordicRX8 said:6- 49GB Seagate 5-1/4" Full height SCSI drive (RAID 0) <--- mp3

I used to have 3 of those in a RAID5 that I used as storage space at lan parties sometimes, and damn, they were un-quiet
AMD RULES said:wow....that's awesome...
Malk-a-mite said:Ok, first my server felt old... now I feel old.

Guys (and Gals), if you ever have the opportunity to attend a County or State auction... GO! Wonderful deals to be had in electronics and office equipment/furniture.... and vehicles!
hokatichenci said:Unhappy with a mere 1.8tb of storage on a single system, I had the burning desire for more. More availability. More redundancy. More scalability. And hopefully, cheaper. Today, I should have the following showing up at my door:
Asus A8N-SLI Premium (Dual gigabit, 8 sata ports, 2x pci-e (8x8x) + 1x pci-e 4x)
AMD64 Venice 3200+
Seagate 7200.10 320GB SATA
Seagate 7200.x 80gb IDE
Some asus case
2x256mb of RAM
Dell Powerconnect 2716 16 port web managed GigE switch (supports jumbo frames + link bonding)
Also in the mail I have what is hopefully a 5 pack of Intel Pro/1000 PT Dual port cards.
Hopefully I'll get a worklog going once I get all the equipment. This is just the initial order for what is hopefully many more to come![]()
AMD RULES said:nice system...make sure you post photos![]()
Malk-a-mite said:AMD_RULES - what the other poster mentioned to you was that it's impolite to post short/simple/spam-sih posts to a thread because of two reasons.
1) inflates post count, which some people like to do for some reason. So as a general courtesy to your fellow forum members please don't.
2) constantly pushes this thread back to the top of the forum, it's a cool thread. Lots of people have already posted and I'm sure more will. Don't worry about it falling off the front page and if it does, let it go.
If you still feel the need to let each user known how cool/neat/slamming their server specs are, use a private message.
AMD RULES said:do you have something against me or something?
Cause other people have commented on post and you aint complaining to them![]()

Dew said:Other people have made maybe one or two comments. You have made no less than 10 spam comments.
Malk-a-mite said:AMD_RULES, this is a reverse list of some of your comments in this thread:
-------------
nice system...make sure you post photos
wow....that's awesome...
ya, that must be freakin loud...
wow...nice
nice specs tho
nice specs...is it fast?
nice specs
wow...nice
haha lmao!!
nice server specs: what's your site url?
-----------------
This is also a list of comments you have made in this thread:
What operating systems do you guys use for your server?
so is single core ok for a file server?
Any of you running Windows Server Enterprise?
can you run a web server on a residential internet connection? (broardband or fiberoptic)
how is windows server? pretty good?
how is the FTP feature?
Anyone running Opteron Home File Server?
i meant like a skt940 opterons or a dual cpu server @ home
what is VMware? Is that like Micosoft Virtual PC??
when you guys say your server is also a router, do you mean by using the DCHP function?
ok..thanks...is there a way to make you server an acess point?
what is raid 0+1?
-------------------
The difference is one of the forum being a point of information for everyone, or reading like a IM conversation.
And yes, we are old and cranky.![]()

Madwand said:I was just thinking about updating my post mentioning that I've got a LAG group going as well for no good reason other than that I've got the NICs and a supporting switch, etc. But apparently you're into bonding / link aggregation big time -- are you sure that it's going to do what you want it to do? What would that be? This topic would be a suitable offshoot for the Networking forum; it's been discussed before, but then again so has much else..
