WHS

[phileeny]

Rebuilt my old computer with making a windows home server, using a DFI lanparty NFII ultra b with a sempron 2200 and 1gb memory.

Installed 4 old IDE drives 30gb, 45gb, 80gb, 250gb.
I have 4 sata drives to and 2 usb drives to install later.

I have a demo copy of WHS installed on the 80gb drive.
Everything seems to work well in this set up.
But now I plan to BUY the proper copy of WHS from OcUK this week
Question:
Does the WHS copy on OcUK have powerpack 1, 2, or 3
I've been told I would better putting the WHS on the biggest drive, is this true, as the os only takes up 20gb.
thanks Phil

Thanks for the info, just need to make the dam thing quieter, would love to have passive CPU cooling, but can't get stuff now for socket A board, got an old cooler master aero to try, after I remove all the dust.

if you can't here it, why make it quiet.

another question:
what would happen to my data pool if WHS fails some how and i need to do a reinstall, because when i installed the demo it wiped my drives, and it wipes them when you install a drive to the data pool.
