Hi, I bought the new slim server, and have put together a Pentium D 2.8 Gig for the server, with just under a 2 Terabyte raid 5 drive. I saw the FAQ’s and it's pretty vague on how much ram is required. My Question is that I am going to be having a lot of MP3's...A lot. I mean a really large amount.<Grin> Is one Gig enough ram for this or am I kidding myself. I am new to this so figured someone might have some suggestions for me. Thanks so much in advance for any help you can provide me.
You left out a few crucial datapoints. Will you be running the latest Vista or OS/X Lion or a headless (and X-less) Linux setup? That makes a huge difference in memory requirements. For the latter, 1GB is overkill just for serving music.
