Firstly the time - ooops! No 8am is wrong. I reckon more like 10am.
Sorry didn't set that bit.

I am only thinking of maybe combining up to 10 first off just to see
if we can do it and what speed output we get etc. And secondly I am
presuming that folks might have uses for it as well as the youth club.
They will be into online gaming etc but I am hoping to get a fixed IP
address so we can tap into for various reasons. I have a few spare
drives that we could use.

What do others think? Ideas for use please?

Thanks.
