Hi All. Thanks very much for Joshua, William, Bjoern and Matthew's

I've now looked at the famous Server for 7K thread. In my case we are
looking for a server for around 3000 pounds (UK); the server is to be an
all-purpose web and database server.

We are considering two RAID1 system disks, and two RAID1 data disks.
We've avoided buying Xeons. The machine we are looking at looks like
this:
Rackmount Chassis - 500W PSU / 4 x SATA Disk Drive Bays
S2882-D - Dual Opteron / AMD 8111 Chipset / 5 x PCI
Three options:
9500-4LP with Raptor drives 10k rpm, raid 1 + raid 1
9500-8LP with Raptor drives 10k rpm, raid 10 + raid 1
Go for SCSI (LSI Megaraid or ICP Vortex) and take 10k drives
If you are going with Raptor drives use the LSI 150-6 SATA RAID
with the BBU.
