If it is primarily an NFS server, any CPU over 1 GHz will do. Even a single cpu with a single core. The only concern is if you are using a 10 Gbps network card. If money is a concern, you are not going to be using a 10 Gbps network card. Regards, -Roberto -- Roberto C. Sanchez http://people.connexer.com/~roberto http://www.connexer.com
