Yeah just movies. Have a decent collection now. Want to stream them on a raid box. My main rig is too small to hold the all the drives.

The consoles like the 360 (and a lot of blu-ray players for that matter) are pretty robust in what they can get media from. I would be very, very surprised if the 360 couldn't pick up what Amahi was sending out. The file formats are another question, though the 360 seems to have robust support in that area as well.

Well the Xbox actually is fairly limited to the files it's supposed to support. However using the Divx codec you can watch almost anything through it. It's not as nice as having a HTPC. This may become one of those. That is why I was questioning the parts. I want to be able to display the files in the future when I upgrade my TV. Unless the 720 is more robust. Then it will just be a over powered server. I have a PERC5 card already to go. I'll have a nice raid 5,maybe 1.0 depending on cost of drives when I buy. I just figured I would throw a possible build out to see what others thoughts would be on the hardware. So far I've got suggestions on software and something I don't want...I do appreciate everyone's suggestions thanks you and + rep for it. However. Is the Processor enough to run an efficient server/htpc
