I used to have MySQL, BlueDragon Server JX and FMS2 running on a Dual Xeon box with RHEL 3. It was not good, and BlueDragon does not use nearly as much resources as CF7. What we ended up doing is getting a second server and running MySQL and BD on it. Then we dumped FMS2 altogether because it was such a resource hog and decided to put Wowza Media Server on the Dual Xeon box to serve up our FLV videos. Wowza uses very little server resources, but I do suggest that you go with a SCSI hard drive since it will only be as efficient as your hard drive access speeds and your bandwidth. Same goes for FMS2.
