i run SBS on an Atom 330 myself, because I was tired of keeping the 70W (at idle) silent server always on. I run Linux Ubuntu on a 330 powered Shuttle X27D, and SBS runs well after some installation frustration. The little server never draw more than 26W, and it is surprisingly versatile. I now use it all the time for web cruising and 90% of day to date duties, I only now have to turn on the big machine to run the more heavyweight Windows Office Apps.
I can recommend a 330 based SBS server. Oh, my music collection is external. The server is very lightweight, just runs off a 32GB SSD, which of course makes it very snappy when booting, and further increases power efficiency. -- pablolie ...pablo Server: Shuttle X27D - Ubuntu 8.04LTS - SBS 7.4.1 Sources: SB3 (3), SB Boom (3), Duet (1), Radio (1), Accuphase DP65v CD (used as DAC mostly) Amplifiers: Accuphase E306v - Creek OBH21/22 Loudspeakers: Ceeroy 3-way tower (tuned) - Audioengine 5/S8 - Acoustic Energy Aego M Headphones: Grado SR-1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pablolie's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3816 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=74924 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
