Both the same, win2003 Sp2, 4GB ram, running as TS boxes with Office 2003 and a bespoke DB app (frontend to an SQL server). IE7 etc. Nothing special.
Model wise they are different, but broadly speaking they are the same, both quad core xeons, both 1U, both raid1 array etc. The SCSI one has average of 0.6 write queues and seems fine.

From: Oliver Marshall [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 13, 2008 3:55 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Avg Disk write queues Chaps, One for the collective here. Is it fair to say that a server with a high avg disk write queue (typically around 4 or 5, peaking at 15) is going to show signs of 'running slowly' ? In this case it's a TS box and the users on that server are complaining its just slow, slow to respond, to reply, to flick between folders etc. We have another identical box which is fine, but that runs scsi where as this box runs sata. I need some evidence to get them to push through some spending on the disks, and I'm hoping that the avg disk write queue figures are just what I need.
