Hi all,
First time posting on this forum particular forum.
I have what I like to call my media server.
The server has 1gb memory and a 300gb second hdd.
I have various bits of kit around my home to play the media from this server(which is running XP Pro Service pack 2).
I have a PS3 and am running a piece of software on my server which allows my PS3 to see my media.
I feel that the power of my media server is not strong enough to provide the files to my PS3 correctly.
I also have a lovely shinny new Vista machine with 3 gb of memory. I would like to transfer all my media to run from this machine. I would also like to transfer the media to an external HDD and run it on my Vista pc.
So after all that what suggestions do you have. Should I purchase a new addtional internal sata drive or are speeds from a USB external drive fast enough to deliver the media to my various devices.
Thanks
