building backup/maybe gaming server
im kinda scared about our current computer situation: we dont have any back ups. at all. years worth of pictures, etc and financial documents are being "protected" on a 8 year old dell. i have my dad's support for this. its going to be mainly backup/audio streaming, but maybe game also depending on how everything works out. this is what i have so far..
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822145137 nice big hdd  im also going to be putting in an 80gb hard drive for linux so i can reformat that if necisary and not lose everything. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813128045 cheap, has decent (not really) integrated graphics http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817371005 dont see a need for anything else... http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820145034 more for me :P going to give it my 1gb of ram. i dont think it will need more... http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16819103199 crazy cheap, i dont think ill need anything more i will be building my own case XD going to have fun (always is but a smaller mobo this time so thats very good news for me) just going to use current mouse/keyboard and unplug them when un needed...dont see why i would need to keep them on there 24/7. goes the same with monitor. any other ideas? i just want something really cheap. the game i MIGHT host would be CS and thats a big maybe dont incorperate that into your thinking. thanks

If it's going to just be used for backup ONLY,then I say go for it.

heh might as well where i can. yea its 99% backup. if i ever have a lan party might use it for that but would be like a 10 person cs 1.6 server. dont think that will happen much. will also stream music but thats not too much to ask...
might want to check out the case mod work log section some time. going to be building the case soon
