Re: [SLUG] minimum requirement for samba that serving 30 clients file sharing


Depends.  Are they doing desktop publishing and so dealing with
100Mb files?  Or just doing the odd bit of word processing?

If the latter, then a bog standard pc with a bunch of disks
in a RAID should do it.

Even after you've worked out the load, there's a lot unsaid
in the customer requirement :-)  like availability requirements:
time to recover; currency of data once recovered.
