Where is the content coming from? Local drives or back end servers? We have a frontend server hosting the web site on mirrored disks with redundant backend servers serving up the content. Traffic on the site is on the low end but still no issues with performance or down time. We only bring the servers down to patch for MS updates. If you cannot have them down for that, or any other type of maintenance, you will want to load balance the front end and back end servers.

We currently have our web site hosted off site on a partner's network. We are now brining it to our site for hosting. We have to buy a web server etc. it is going to run under IIS and needs 99.999% uptime. Would you cluster the server, just rely on redundant power, raid on the hds etc, or ???. Alos is it best to have the content be on a Raid 1 disk set? Just looking for some opinions etc. Thanks..Bob ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm> ~
