Thanks.
500 people simultaneously is the worst case (I'm assuming video streaming is the most intensive task that the server will have to perform). Apart from that, there will be music files and documents that shall be available.
What do you recommend? I was under this impression that multiple small disks are better than larger ones and that's the reason why I thought of using 16 disks. I guess I couldn't be more wrong. And RAID 0 (or 00) because there's no writing to the server - only reading for it. Thanks anyways.
I'll look into the costs. I prefer using new ones, but in case used one are reliable, I'll consider that.
