I really don't think everyone is being fair to stylnchris. (stylnchris if I am going to take your side, you need to use a signature with a name
)
The last five or six posts are saying the same thing. Can't afford better system, don't need to especially with AC and can't afford IT.
styl is a new user, and like me when I started was shocked to see the setups people use. It isn't that it has always worked, it is that it has a better chance of failing and will never work as efficiently even though it works well enough.
We have all heard patients say, "I have never had a flu shot and have never come down with the flu," This is poor logic.
Styl is saying that your data is your whole career and as such it should be on a server-grade system. If you choose not to due to funds, that is fine. It is just reality. I think saying that AC is kind of a DIY program makes no sense.
As I said to Styl, he hasn't had the benefit of reading the Peer-to-Peer wars and the fact that like the Brother vs Any other MFC is a useless argument.
I also need to state once again that AC is not the only software you use. A server allows all software to run better and safer.
If I may speak for Styl, he is not saying don't run AC on a P2P, he is saying it scares him to think of it. I think there is no wrong here.
