Hi, Vincent:

I attempted this once:  there wasn't much room inside the case,
especially when I got into the Baroque stuff; my multi-volume
editions of Bach's "Well Tempered Clavier" got stuck in the
CPU fan, and I darned near burned up a nice Athlon chip.
Since I already had one burned out Athlon as a coaster,
I decided it would be better to store *recordings* of much
on my server, rather than the *printed music* itself. :-D

All joking aside, your questions begs for "more detail".
If you simply want file storage, lots has already been said.

If you are looking for a server to "stream" audio to the
network, there are several programs for that, also,
including gnump3d, icecast, DarwinStreamingServer,
xbms, gini, and even an Apache webserver module that
will do "streaming".
