ah, chalk it up to my ignorance. I didn't know the DNAS basically didn't hit the HD, I just assumed it did. my mistake. I know there is a formula for max users based on available bandwidth speed, but is there something similar based on proc/ram? or will it always be greater than bandwidth available constraints?

as for SSD usage, I read conflicting things on **** hardware, which might indicate that in some server based cases, the HD performance is not good enough, but that might only have been for big DBs, I can't recall. anyway, not applicable here.

EDIT: the asterix above are not mine, the forum changed "t o m s" (no spaces) to that?
