I enjoy the ability to access everything I have all the time anywhere in the world, so I set up the following config:

1. ROUTER
Dual PPro 200mhz, 128MB RAM, 20G hard drive. Runs Slackare 9.1, and hosts my BitTorrent tracker, a samba server, a print server, and runs folding@home in its spare time.

2. FILER/Main server
T-bred 1466Mhz (1700+) on an Abit KT7A, 1G PC133, 20G system drive.
4x 160G seagate barracuda drives in a RAID-5 array (433G useable space)
Runs Slackware 9.1, and hosts my NFS, NIS, HTTP, FTP, Mail, and Shoutcast servers.

Here's a pic of the server setup (filer on the left, router on the right):

3. DESKTOP
Barton 3200+ on an Asus A7N8X Deluxe, 80G sATA hard drive, water cooled, yadda yadda yadda. See the <a href="http://www.djskaven.com/rig">pics</a>. This system also runs Slackware 9.1.

Here's one of the pics (see link above for more)

4. MEDIA computer
T-bird 1400Mhz, 512MB RAM, Windows 2000 (roommates can't handle linux). Plays movies/MP3s from filer quite nicely.

The router, filer, cable modem, and switches are all on UPS power, constantly monitored by <a href="http://www.djskaven.com/ups-status/upsstats.cgi">apcupsd</a>.

Since the filer is constantly on, and is NFS-accessible (or samba-accessible from windows) at all times, I can access all my data (documents, web pages, MP3s, videos, pr0n, everything) from any of the computers in the network. It's a sweet setup. I like it.
