A friend of mine is getting a T1 line installed and is looking to build
three new computer and was after recommendations, also trying to keep the
price reasonable.
He needs a SQL server (stores a lot of important information) for a custom
web app which was built (mostly ASP files) for his company. Also a web
server and a mail server.
The app is very SQL intense but is only going to be used by his company
(about 65 people in about 15 locations)
Here is what I recommended to him, but would like input.
Asus main boards with dual CPU capacity (ASUS P2B BX)
Put 2 1.6 Intel processors in SQL server and one processor in the
other two server (that way you can upgrade later)
2 Raided 30 gig SCSI drives in SQL. Single 30 gigs in other two
computers.
Dual Intel nics
512 RAM in SQL, and Exchange server, 256 in web server.
APC power backups
plus all obvious things, like case, power supply ....
What do you guys think about dual power supplies? overkill?
I told him to get an extra power supply and main board to have them on hand
in case of emergency ...
Thanks for any input. also recommendations on routers and switches (only
about 8 people in main office)
