The server I'm planning on setting up is mainly for use on my Gigabit Ethernet LAN. I plan on using it mainly for storage and backups. Yea, I do have Apache running on another machine and will probably tie the two together. But the web site is a private family genealogy based system. Not a lot of bandwidth needed except for all of those photos.
From what I'm reading I think I'm hearing that I should blow off thePCI-X slots and go with a cheaper motherboard.
This all would have been a mote point if 3Ware had had even one P4/PCI-X board listed on their compatibility list.
I have a 3ware in a p4 based motherboard with pci-x, the supermicro p4sct. The only machines we've ever had any trouble with 3wares in were opterons...

Am I missing something? I don't think the Original Poster ever said that all of this bandwidth was for *remote* access.
I got the impression that the clients were supposed to be on the same LAN. Gigabit Ethernet is practically entry-level these days.
