I'm running WHS version 1 on a home-built system using an old Socket 939 board with an Athlon X2 3800. The system is only used for file storage and automatic back-ups of five desktops and laptops. No media storage or streaming, etc.
I was going through some old components yesterday and came across two 939 Opterons--a single core 144 and an X2 165.
Which of the three CPUs do you think is best for WHS? I'm leaning toward the Opteron 144, because it seems powerful enough for my usage, and would save a bit of energy, etc. What do you think?
