We have a video file of sie 140MB. The video file is a Windows Media Video File. A link to this video file is to be published on our intranet. When all of my business users click on the link approximately at the same time, I would like to know what exactly happens (yes, I understand that the video will play :-))
- Will a copy be downloaded to each of the local client PC's. If yes, will it affect my LAN and Server on which the video is hosted?
Thanks,

Not really, it's some custom VIA motherboard taken from mediacenter (?) with SiS 630 chipset. And it's passive cooled: http://s.whitequark.ru/sensord/sensord.cgi. Works for two years at least, and also: http://s.whitequark.ru/uptime/

First, he probably needs not a four-port switch but a bit more 'corporative' one. Second, I live in Russia and prices are a bit bigger, e.g. 3Com 24-port switch costs about 120000 roubles; this is about $4000, and OP lives in India. And also you has probably meant cat5e. – whitequark – 2010-01-21T13:54:43.113
