Anyone have any stories about upgrading from SBS 2000 to SBS 2003 on
the same hardware?

Is the old hardware good enough to handle SBS 2003? You can off course do a
direct upgrade but many of us prefer not to do that because of possible
accumulated garbage on the SBS 2000. A good alternative to get a clean
migration is to use the swing migration method as found at
www.sbsmigration.com. It is well worth the cost for the comprehensive
documentation, tools, and support you receive.

I've got the Swing Migration kit, and the hardware that is getting the
SBS 2003 is very good. We spent quite a bit of money two years so it
can definitely handle SBS 2003. It's just not in the budget to
purchase a new server. I was thinking of using Ghost to Ghost the
drive, and having that for disaster recovery should something happen.
However, I don't know if a RAID 3 can be Ghosted.
