Hardware configuration looks ok. IDE or SCSI? Well, when I started doing this 5 years ago, IDE drives kept crashing. Pain in the A**. We moved to SCSI drives and never had problems since. We have stayed with IBM SCSIs and upgrading them as needed.
RAM is good. CPU - if going to be Cold Fusion intensive, I would go with a dual processor. Today, IDE drives are just as good as SCSI. But, I still stay with SCSIs. They seems to put up with more. The choice is a 50/50 shot. If you are tight for budget, you should be fine with IDE. If you have a couple hundred more, then I would problem go with SCSI. But do not forget about the SCSI controller.. additional cost. With hardware cluster / load balance solutions, you do not need CF enterprise.
