[QUOTE="Enforcer, post: 188169, member: 45052"] Hello, I want to build a server which can handle the follwing tasks: -Internet (Proxy), Print-Server, Streaming the TV to 2 Clients My tv-cards: -Hauppauge Nova S Plus and a Technisat Skystar 2. I don't want to have HDTV. Now I have some question about the hardware: HDD: -Should I buy two HDDD (2x 250 GB) or one with 500GB? Which solution is better, for example if 2 clients wanted to record tv at the same time? S-ATA or IDE? CPU: I want to buy a CPU which can handle all tasks, but it should not be over dimensioned because I want to have a low noise Server. What is about a mobile CPU? It is an alternative? Dual or single core? power consumption: Surfing through the internet doesn't need much power. The Server will be used only 20-25% for watching TV, so the CPU should have enough power, but during other tasks it shouldn't waste so much energy! Thanks for your help! Greets ENF [/QUOTE]
