Hi,
I am planning to build a network storage for storing multimedia libraries such as video & audio footage, graphics, 3d models and etc for easier access from several people when doing multimedia projects. Those libraries usually don't need to be accessed all the time as users will only access the library when they need to find something or get something for their work.
Here are my questions:
1. What are the major things that I really need to pay attention when building the network storage?
2. Currently, I have an old extra PC (It's Pentium 4 system with Asus p5gc-mx motherboard). Do you think this PC is suitable to be used as data storage? Do I need to upgrade or get a faster one?
3. Do you have any advices or suggestions if I am going to build or buy a new one?
Thanks.
