Currently we have 6 users using Solid Works and we arecopying files from the server to the local hard drive and modifyingthem and then copying them back to the server location oncefinished as our assemblies are very large (~400+ parts).
The current server only has a 100Mb/s connection and a ATA drivebut we are looking into getting a new server with SCSI drives andRAID with a Gigabit connection (all CAD pc's have a Gigabitconnection also), will running Solid Works files via this networkserver with this configuration get near the performance of copyingthe files locally and modifying them there?
Are there any other suggestions as we are finding using the fileslocally we are getting mulitple people using the same files, andincreasing the risk of wiping, or changing files.
I know PDM systems is another option, but wanted to know if theirwere any alternativesSolidworksImport export
