Even only looking at document libraries (of which there can be many).
The sort of limit that is usually banded about is 2000 files per folder and 2000 folders per document library. I make that 4 million per document library.
Not that I would do that in practice and it's not the sort of limit where 2000 is OK and 2001 isn't but that's the sort of possible figure we are talking about.
It is however imo bad practice to move everything from an existing file system into a SharePoint system. Good practice is to select only the good stuff and let the rest (rot?) stay in the file system and then use the SP doc libs only for new files.
Very large files and large video files should in any case remain in the file system.

I am hesitant to start to move everything into sharepoint vs leaving
it on our file server, but the interface in sharepoint and features
makes it desirable. Being able to get alerts on changes, check in/
out, ease of remote access, search, etc. I dont particularly like
the linking of a webpart to external storage.
What are the thoughts on the board about using Sharepoint as the
primary file server and what are the limits (when using the free WSS
3.0)?
Thanks
