Will go for SSD drives for samples and as mentioned other specs for PC build. Will take a while to get template sorted but really looking forward to having it all loaded and concentrate on writing music rather than the tech side. really great advice has helped me out loads, thankyou

The 840 (non pro) is fine for samples. The pro version has a bit better read performance, a lot better write performance and much better write endurance at a substantially higher cost. Since sample drives are read-only other than occasional updates/installs, the regular 840 is by far a better value. Also bear in mind that multiple drives provide more independent channels of I/O, e.g. I would prefer 2 250 GB drives than a single 500 GB. Don't go below 250 - the smaller models (at least on the Samsung) have inferior performance and write endurance to the larger ones.
This one reason I prefer the Haswell platform - more SATA III ports. As your sample library grows you will need 3 or 4 SSD's. Also make sure whatever case you get has room for at least 6 drives.

Hello danybab,
1) Launch Vienna Ensemble PRO SERVER (32 and/or 64 bit) on your computers. On Windows (and if you are a Mac-user): Click the "START" button => "All programs" => "Vienna Ensemble PRO SERVER"
2) Start your sequencer.
3) Insert "Vienna Ensemble PRO" as a plug-in in your sequencer => the SERVER INTERFACE will open (this CONNECTS to your SERVERs, which are outside of your sequencer).
4) Connect to the available instances.
Of course you need a working ethernet connection if you are connecting 2 computers.
Best,
Paul
