Should RAM increase with an increase in Drive Space in Windows XP
Does memory need to increase with large combined drive capacity in XP?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

M$It also depends on what processor you are wanting to use. Since you are only having 2 people access at most, you shouldn't need that powerful of a processor. However, if you significantly increase the number of users the processor will have to become more powerful to serve an ever-growing number of users. This in effect will lead to more RAM consumption as people download/upload files.

M$But I guess you are just going to be browsing to that server in Windows Explorer and double clicking on movie files or something? Probably whatever it is exactly that you are doing there is a technical solution that will stream the data without requiring it all to be loaded into RAM (and if it did, it would still just use the virtual memory which would slow it down but not prevent it unless it ran out of pagefile space or something).
Anyway Kingston has cheap RAM http://www.google.com/products/catalog?hl=en&rlz=1C1GGLS_enUS291US305&q=4+GB+RAM&um=1&ie=UTF-8&cid=2557576951303257902&sa=X&oi=product_catalog_result&resnum=1&ct=result#ps-sellers

I may have to purchase one of those to check it out... I love the size!
That is a bit expensive per TB. I am looking to get to around $100 per TB over the next two years. The price of HDD is dropping about $10.00 per TB every 2 months right now so I will get space as I need it. I would like the "server" to cost about $500 and I am getting close.
I wasn't aware that 4G of memory was < $100 but if it wont increase performace, why buy it? I would rather put the money toward another hard drive.
Have you seen the Buffalo LinkStation Mini (1T)

I have on of these. Replaced a server with it. Produces MUCH less heat in the room and cost only about 300$ complete.
This is no more for the complete NAS than I would have paid for the drives alone.
