to a "suit"?? smile!!

i work for a small graphic design company which is just finally getting an NT server, which i will have to take care of -- thank goodness for this list and the mac-NT list!!! (thanks to dan schwartz too)

anyhow, it is a poweredge 2300 server with 128 megs ram, 2 scsi 18-gig drives, and whatever else it has...500 mhx pentium-3, tape drive, cdrom, etc.

main reason i am concerned about memory is that i have to run SFM services for macintosh and i have read that it's a memory hog...TRUE??

main usage at first will be file sharing, then various other things later on...intranet?? who knows??

i think 128 megs of ram is anemic, but how can i explain/justify this in layman's terms???

thank you!!!

:) tom

p.s. where can i find out how to set up RAID for NT????? and whether i need raid 0, 1, or 5????
(i don't know if my boss (who doesn't know much about computers, let alone NT/windows) will want raid or not...)

hopefully with my forthcoming seat-of-the-pants experience, i can answer some questions later on...the mac-NT list was quite helpful with regard to SFM...
