Hey all,=20
Looking to build my first proper file server similar to the one in
Marks guide.
Hard drives are coming via a friend from the states so very nice
prices e.g. $145 for 320Gb either SATA or EIDE. (approx =A379!!)

Opinions on the benefits or drawbacks of either method.
I know SATA has hot swappability but I dont seem to have seen as many
caddies available.
Probably looking eventually at around 6 to 8 drives for around 2Tb!
Thanks all,
Noel
