I'm putting together a NAS box, and would like some advice re CPU.
I was going to use an AMD Sempron 140 2.7ghz ($40), but my friend, who built a similar NAS unit, said I should spend the extra $80 or so and get an Intel Core2 Duo E7500 2.93ghz ($120).
Is the Duo worth the extra money? Or will the Sempron suffice?
(This would be with 8GB RAM and 4-8 2TB drives)
thanks!
