Thanks Chuck! Good point on the Pro versions of SSDs. Our data file is 32GB, and 14GB index file (about 1080 indexed fields). Would love your thoughts on appropriate RAM and processor speed for our scenario. Thanks again!

You will need this for how much memory. Indexes? I would also recommend a raid SSD setup. More memory is always better. If you want to have your entiore data file in cache you wil need requisite memory. Also make sure to get Pro versions of SSDs not consumer versions. Hope this helps?

We're currently running our 4DServer v16 r6 application on a Windows 2008r2 server (DELL Server PER420 with Xeon CUP E5-2407 v2 @2.40Ghz 2.40 Ghz (2 processors) with 32GB RAM, 64-bit). Our budget for the coming year includes funds for a new server machine. I'm looking for hardware recommendations based on our current users and setup. We average about 45 concurrent users via 4D client/server and another 50 - 70 web connections. 4D doesn't like to make recommendations beyond minimum requirements, so I'm wondering if anyone on the list has a similar scenario and could recommend processor speed, RAM, etc. Thanks in advance!
