PM 9600 as a SAN machine under osx 10.3?
Hi,
do you think that an upgraded PM 9600 ( G4/700, 896MB Ram) under OSX 10.3 would give an reasonable SAN (storage area network) server?
If I would put a SATA Raid (for data safety) in it, 5 400GB SATA Drives (>2TB of Storage minus overhead for Raid 5) a gigabit networkcard.
Reasonable means to me around 20MB/s over gigabit ethernet to a PM G5 and a Ti Book.
Anny sugestions are welcome.

PS: didn´t know where to put this, so I try it here. Admins feel free to put this thread where it belongs. Thank you.
