On my existing dedicated server i rent, its a dual core and at one time there
were 3 servers and with all servers full (3x 20 slots) - there were no lag
spikes or performance issues and the servers werent even locked to using a
specific core.
When i had my new servers built, i couldnt afford getting a 10,000 RPM SATA
drive because of the recent floods in Taiwan drove up the price - i would be
paying close to $800 per hard drive (they used to go for $300 for 250GB). So
the store suggested i go with RAID-0 (2 Drives) since the performance will be
better than a single hard drive .
As for failure - its not a big deal because i keep local copies of all the
configs, maps, etc. for every game server.
