  • How much samples to put on VEP slave

    Hi all,

    Just bought VEP 6 and finished building a slave PC to go alongside my custom built desktop, which has served me well for the past 3 years or so.

    I currently have nearly 2tb of samples on 2 1tb Samsing SSDs, and the slave has 32gb RAM

    My main workstation also has 32gb RAM, and I'm debating whether or not I should put both SSDs with the samples in the slave or put 1 in the slave and keep one in my workstation. If I put both in the slave, is it still possible to use them on my workstation over the LAN (i.e. have instances of VEP running on both the slave and the workstation both able to access the samples)? Both computers are connected to an ethernet switch.

    I've built my fiar share of computers, but I know very little about networking. My only concern is that there might be too much latency. Can anyone comment on this or provide any suggestions?

    Thanks
