Mini-ITX HTPC/File server

[nelis]

Hi there

I'm looking for a Mini ITx build. It's going to be used as Media/file server. Please no HP Microserver as It's not fast enough. I want either 1155/1150 socket solutions. I'm planning on addin either an i3 or i5 CPU to it. I was thinking about getting the bitfenix prodigy as I saw it for around R900 online. So what motherboard etc etc do I go for. I will have 1 HDD for Operating system and then maybe 2 2TB-4TB Hard drives as storage.


Thanks

Not sure if it will be that effective to post in the ADSL ISP section.
maybe try to post here and ask for a quote?

Not fast enough at/for what? It most certainly should be fast enough to serve anything your drives will be able to pull off the platters.
