After bordering on the lines of techie geekdom for several years I've decided that with my new job I really need a test network at home to well you know. Test.
I have decided that as a start for this network I am going to go for 2 PC's to act as servers within this network but as these need to be
I'm a little bit stuck (My Main PC is a bit of a monster) and so basically I need some advice on components as I don't have a clue on the lower spec PC equipment.
What should I get?
Matching my criteria (Cheap and Quiet are the most important) can anyone suggest a spec (pref SFF) which allows me to fit 2-4GB of Ram, 2*3.5" Drives and ideally an Athlon 64 (For 64 Bit Windows)
If it had Gigabit Ethernet that'd be even better but not essential.
Ideas, Questions, Comments........................
Thanks in advance.
