So with recently I have decided that I would rather build a NAS/WHS as separate storage for my wife's laptop, my laptop and our desktop to access (as well as Tivo's and Xbox360).
Looking at what I have and my enrollment in the ACM.org MSDNAA service I have the availability for Server 2003/2008 but as it has been a number of years since I have networked servers I am wondering the following:
1. will an atom processor system be "robust" enough to work as a NAS/WHS
2. will the above work well enough to run Server 2k3/2k8
3. Would I be better off buying WHS vs Server 2k3/2k8?
