I know this is risky, but we have fairly low volume of hits, maybe several
hundred per day, to the server. We can afford a pretty nice server selected.

We are running it now on a server with no real problems (that we have seen).

Compaq Proliant ML350 733/133 Hot Plug HD Model (128) (will compare Dell and
HP too).

Greater Than 512MB (not final yet)
RAID 5 using 3 9.1GBHD's
Dual Wide-Ultra2 Controller
10/100 NIC
12/24GB Backup
NT SVR 4.0
etc.

I want to run CF and SQL on this box.

Questions:

1. Are there any huge draw backs to doing this.
2. Does it make more sense to get 2 lesser boxes?

Please don't respond if you just want to bash Compaq.

TIA
