Stan,
With that number of users I would probably go with (4) 32Gb RDIMM for a total of 128Gb. On the CPU’s I would go with the (2) Intel Xeon processors (I believe 2 processors is the max for that model Dell). We opted for the Xeon Gold versus the Silver, but I can’t tell you how much of a difference one would make over the other for the application you use. But typically, the Gold would be considered a medium duty workload processor and the Silver more light duty. Keep in mind that the remote desktop sessions are like taking that processor and memory and splitting it up with the number of users. With the 20 to 30 user workload we have, we are using 10% to 15% of our 96Gb of RAM we have allocated to our APPS server. But that is with probably 5 or 6 heavy duty users and the rest doing lighter tasks or idling. I hope that helps.

Good morning, I am upgrading my current virtual window 2012 server for RBASE. I am making this a standalone windows 2019 sever. This is the critical application and runs our entire company. We have 35 users. We will be using remote desktop application to access the compiled application and data. The only other applications would be Veeam for backups and maybe Symantec? I am looking to buy a dell PowerEdge T440 CPU ( I am not sure if two CPU would help?) (2)Intel Xeon Silver 4210 2.2G, 10C/20T, 9.6GT/s, 13.75M Cache, Turbo, HT (85W) DDR4-2400 Memory (2) 32GB RDIMM, 2666MT/s, Dual Rank C5, RAID 10 for HDDs or SSDs in pairs (Matching Type/Speed/Capacity) (4) 960GB SSD SAS Mixed Use 12Gbps FIPS-140 512e 2.5in with 3.5in HYB CARR Drive, PM5-V Broadcom 57416 Dual Port 10GbE BASE-T Adapter, PCIe Full Height Dual, Hot-plug, Redundant Power Supply (1+1), 495W Redundant Fan Option Any thought on configuration? Is this enough memory? Will dual CPU’s make a difference? Raid 10 is expensive but down time is unacceptable. I have read that it is no longer best practices to keep the operating system on a separate raid disk? thoughts?
