Hi All,

I'm not sure the best design approach for a product table for a number of different hardware devices. Some devices have IP, Port, CPU, Memory specs, whilst some don't. Current desing is below.

Products:
product_id
product_name
maker_id
controller_id
product_type_id
product_model_number
product_serial_number
product_age
condition_id
product_price
product_sold_price
product_sold
product_auctioned
product_qty
product_last_updated
product_data_output
product_desc

ProductTypes:
product_type_id
product_type_detail

Makers:
maker_id
maker_detail

Some products we'll have are, switches/routers/dedicated servers/firewalls etc. Should I just make a Specs table, or, specific table for each type of product.? Appreciate any thoughts on this. Cheers.

Mark Sargent.
