We've been asked to quote for a large cluster running Asterisk and our

We're considering using Dell blade servers, 1855 or similar, on the
grounds that we normally use Dell machines and they work well, but we
need higher rack density.
Has anyone used these? Any feedback on whether they're
good/bad/indifferent? What scalability do you get on simple SIP-SIP
forwarding either with or without RTP passing through Asterisk?
I would instead recommend the SuperMicro 1U servers - we have had a really
great run with these.

If you're considering 1U rack servers then also look at the Gigabyte SR147L
(P4 Socket 478) or SR157L (P4 LGA 775) we've deployed over 150 and
had only one PSU failure in 3 years (do use the Western Digital "RAID
edition"
SATA drives though).
