Hello;
I'm building myself a server for my house hold to connect to.
I have a laptop, one desktop and a gaming desktop, my mother has a laptop and so does my step father, my sister has a netbook. We have a total of 6 computers in the household.
I'm looking towards building a server so I can back up the files of all the computers in our house. They are all ran on Windows 7 and Windows 8.
I have a network switch in my room which I can connect the server to but my knowledge is very basic regarding this topic as I'm still only 15.
My first question is, what components should the server include? I know how to build a PC but I don't know how fast the server would need to be. It will only be used for storing files. If you could list in the comments, a good motherboard and CPU that would be a great help!
How do I connect all the computers in the house to it through wireless? I'm the only one in the house who uses Ethernet.
