worth making a server out of?

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
i have an Asus A8N-sli premium laying around. it has a athlon 64 3800+ (single core) in it and 4gb of ram.

i also have a power supply and a spare 1TB hard drive.

would these parts be worth making a home server out of? or would i be better off leaving them collect dust?

mainly would be used for storage.
