I can see what you're saying... but I can't even imagine requiring 200W to run the entire system. Unless the PSU is a super piece of crap (which is shouldn't be... the case has gotten decent reviews), I shouldn't need to worry at all. Can anyone else chime in?

Should be fine. I'd tell you to go with an Antec Earthwatts PSU personally, since they're green and incredibly efficent. But if you want CM go for it.

Home Server SUCKS, it dumbs everything down and restricts options, etc. Also Home Server is just Server 2K3 but modified anyways. So I would recommend Server 2k3 it's what I have been using.


Also I would just use an old PC that's what my server is.

I wouldn't mind one of those either. But we were talking about cases with PSUs.

If I were going to go with a PSU-less CM case and an Earthwatts PSU, which one would you suggest, STRESSING the fact that this is for storage ONLY... and thus... keep the wattage as low as possible to save me some money.... ?

Is the cheapest Earthwatts Antec has on Newegg, but 430w seems pretty overkill. Ideas? I'm not trying to just shoot you guys all down. I do like your intelligent input! The Earthwatts idea is great! I wish they had some lower wattage PSUs, though.
