I want to set up a server in my room to store stuff from my other computers. Like a local server, not an internet server.
Right now now i have a pretty basic network in my room. My pc, laptop, and then my video game systems connected to a linksys wireless router (b version, not g).
1) What should I look for in the sever? Around waht speed and stuff (since its basically just for storage).
2) what type of server should i get? Should i just get some cheap pc off of ebay or something and make it a server, or spend some extra cash on a cheap server rackmount like this click
3) If I wanted to set it up to share something online, would I be able to do it with this type of system, or would i need a different type of server.
4) Is there a way to control the server from like another computer. I only have 1 monitor and dont want ot have to keep switching it back and forth for when i need it.
ok thanks
