    Looking for a cheap, decent server.

    I just need a small server for my house. It will be mainly a file and print server. No games, websites, etc. Any suggestions on the hardware? I will be buying plenty of HDs to fill this beast. We have a lot of videos, pics, etc that need to go on the server. Thanks for any help.
