Server!!

[Ropey]

Hey everyone,

Everything in stealth is running fine atm. But I need to upgrade and go further!

I want to buy a server from ebay and the software.

Will this be fine for me to put into my PC and install the software onto?

This is the server or something along these lines..

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Dell-1U-CS24...item416f21c83e

This is the windows home server software which I think is fine to install on there?

Microsoft Windows Home Server 2011 64Bit (1 Server & 10 Client Licenses) - OEM (CCQ-00128) [CCQ-00128]

I am then wandering how I would get USA located Static IP's for each user account I want to create. So like different IPs for every different account?

Can you give me feedback and whether this would be fine to do, and then some advice for the IP part, I am UK, but I am sure this is possible somehow?

Thanks for your time and support guys.

Wow, if at that price it comes with the dual socket processors, I might buy a few and make a Folding@home folding farm. Stack a good 5 or 6 of those and I'm set.

Dont buy a server for ebay & pp business. If you are not going to host a website and high load of database softwares then this is not right product for you. Better invest to a desktop PC for yourself. Intel i7 processor & 16 gb ram & Solid state disk & VMWare software would be best for you. Plus two 3g usb dongles if you want to work on multiple accounts at the same time. So you can assign each usb dongles to one machine in vmware and run them same time. You can create more than 300 windows users easily if its your reason to get a server. You will not have any benefits from a server compared to PC.
