I wanted to set up a JBOD in an old PC PIII as a server but I didn't realize
it was a PII. - I want a cheap PC -I have all the components so I want to
replace the motherboard & Chip - is it worth it & RAM (512 ok).
Any Recomendations?

If I start from scratch - I need a full tower for Multiple HD's (how many
can I fit & Power)
How much Power do I need for say 8 sata HD's 400 or 500 watt?
All else can be on Motherboard.
Thanks

Joe

Just a
Bunch
Of
Drives

it is kind of like daisy chaining a bunch of drives together regardless of
size to make on partition. usually controlled by a RAID system, but there
is no redundency or striping envolved
