Off topic, but don't go too far overboard - after all, we are watching...heh.

Some of us were saying you could use 2GB or more, while a certain other party said you didn't even need 512MB. I personally wouldn't take said other party's advice as 2003 itself is a resource hog and will run like crap on 512MB.
I ran a file server in win98 with 128 MB of ram.
I also ran one win Red Hat 9 with 256. You do not need 512.

Must not have been a popular/very used fileserver then..

Yea, I'm gonna make it an FTP I guess, and just share it out to a few friends. I have about 400 GB of music right now , and 250 of movies.

Oh, then it's a FTP server, not a file server. Not the same thing at all. I was wondering what Lordshard was talking about.
A file server provides file services to LAN clients using native protocols at LAN speeds (100 Mbps or 1 Gbps). You wouldn't go anywhere with 512M.
An FTP server doesn't have to be optimized, because of the network bottleneck.
