    Current server is about 5 years old. It has 2 x 160GB (ide) drives in Raid 1 and another drive for storage about 320gb, a tape drive and 2 built in nics.

    Any ideas on a cheap(ish) newer server, the business has about 6 PCs and a laptop, yes you don't really need a server but that's the way it was setup, a NAS + windows storage server etc would do it, but they want a new server, so i thought i could just clone the raid drives and swap over the storage IDE drive which would mean the new server would ideally have sata + IDE interfaces... I suppose i could just use an ide to sata convertor?
