Tziporet, I have been talking to our hosting provider this past week about upgrading our server. We need to decide on the configuration.
Currently, we pay $199 for the following configuration: * Dual 3.4 GHz Pentium D * 1 GB RAM * 160 GB hard drive * 100 GB/month bandwidth * 20 GB backup space Below are some of their pre-packaged plans. An alternate plan for $199/month: * Intel Core 2 DUO 2.2GHz * 1 GB RAM * hardware RAID1 * 500 GB disk (2 250 GB SATA II drives) * 200 GB/month bandwidth * 5 GB of backup space For $239/month: * quad 2.13 GHz Xeon * 2 GB RAM * hardware RAID1 * 500 GB disk (2 250 GB SATA II drives) * 250 GB/month bandwidth * 10 GB of backup space For $399/month: * dual Quad 2.3 GHz Xeon * 4 GB RAM * hardware RAID1 * 280 GB disk (2 140 GB SAS drives) * dual 1G NICs * redundant power supplies * 300 GB/month bandwidth * 20 GB of backup space We can also customize any of these plans. As an example, each extra GB of backup space costs $1/month and each extra GB of bandwidth costs roughly $0.50/month. My current thought is that the $239/month package would meet our needs. We will need to upgrade it to at least 20GB of backup; or even more. Also, we have been running Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper Drake with LTS. The latest LTS version of Ubuntu recently came out, Hardy Heron 8.04, and it probably makes sense to start out with that. Note that we should also get a 10% discount on any of the above quoted prices. Comments? As soon as we agree on the configuration, we can put it into place.
