[QUOTE="magicant, post: 546065, member: 42988"] We're about to deploy a system for the same number of users for the same purposes in the next few weeks. We're using an Xserve with x3 750Gb drives in RAID5 (with OS X Server 10.5) to start with. The reason for going with OS X Server over Windows, is purely for the ease of use for them. We have setup a number of similar systems on Windows, but as there is no IT guy they need to be able to control things. Unless your experienced with Windows, I wouldn't have thought it would be worth using it for your entire system. The system we're deploying, removes the need for local machines to store any data on their hard drives using OD and adds single sign-on throughout the entire network. This then allows all files to be stored on the server and then backed that is backed up rather than each individual workstation - which, as you may know, can be a pain. [/QUOTE]
