A cheap server: there are many different values of cheap; it all depends
on what you need it for.

Yupp, break down the requirements into the following three options:

* Good
* Fast
* Cheap

Pick any *two*. You can never ever have all three. It's a natural law or
something. 8-)

Sure, SATA isn't as fast as SCSI, so I sacrifice that, but SCSI won't give me the same space (3TB) as SATA either. So, a gigabyte mobo + 6x 1TB SATA HDD's + 4GB RAM + 2.8Ghz Core 2 Duo isn't too bad?
