ScienceOne said:You could have separate computers running different cpu-taxing programs, which are common in audio or video production. You could also have one of your computers with a 240 gig harddrive and the other with the latest high-speed processor, that way one computer deals with storing files, and the other deals with processing/programs/etc. It's just so kickass, but of course, expensive to have multiple computers.
Yes that exists but you will not find any DAW apps that support that. High end graphics programs like 3D Studio MAX and Alias Wavefront support network rendering but also cost upwards of $3000...
I would not attempt remote storage over a netowork especially when doing DAW work. Most network cards run at either 10 or 100Mbits/sec. That is still slower than say Firewire and not suitable for realtime recording/streaming. Of course there are Gigabit netcards, but I doubt they would be considered affordable for home use.
