SC1425 is great value but note it does not have high availablility configurations.
In our opinion, telephony requires dual NICs, dual power supplies and RAID 1 to have any hope of achieving five nines.

I'm interested in the answer to this question as well, except that my project scope (and budget) are quite a bit lower than yours. I've always preferred buying Dell, but in this case, I think it may be overkill for this project. I'd really like to know what inexpensive rack-mount servers would work well with Digium hardware (TDM400 in my case). I'm basically looking at 2 TDM cards in one server, and 1 each in 2 others, connecting to PBXes at all sites, to be used for networking the 3 phone systems together into one dialplan. Nothing too fancy (yet). If this information is posted conspicuously somewhere, and I'm just missing it, please let me know :-) Brian Leyton IT Manager Commercial Petroleum Equipment > -----Original Message----- > From: Greg Boehnlein [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday, April 22, 2005 3:29 AM > To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com > Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Dell PowerEdge SC1425 w/ TE405P? > > Hello, > I've been asked to build a couple of Gateway servers for a client w/ > TE405P hardware, and have been looking around at various 1U options. > I've been looking at SuperMicro and Tyan barbones boxes as possible > platforms, but then was directed to Dell's SC1425 by a friend.
