Kevin,

    Should work just fine. I've been using an old HP with a P11/100 for the same purpose these last two years.

Hi All,
        This is more of a network admin question, but I figured I would toss it

out
there and see what everyone thought. I currently have a Dell Precision 410 PIII 600 being used as a sort of file server. It basically houses a shared drive (IDE) and some other IDE drives used for DB backup. I need another DB server and it dawned on me that I might be waisting this machine. Do I really need a PIII 600mhz monster to house a shared drive that maybe 10 users are accessing at once. Couldn't I just throw these drives into a 233mhz Pentium and expect to get the same performace? Not that it's even really doing much...I don't know, any advice would be appreciated.

Sincerely,
