I like the new ML530G2 I got (for my sql app)...12 HS drive bay's room for
the DLT drive...it's sweet...
6304 raid card....
did I mention it's fast??? it is....

Ok it hurt putting it in the rack alone
now to just get one for exchange and retire the ML350...

I woyuld bet the failure on the 15k drives it heat...especially in s 380
tight...more fans

A Compaq DL380 G2 (G3 would be better) with one or two CPUs, 1GB of ram

Two 36GB drives in RAID1 for OS, swap, & exchange logs (not the
greatest, but OK for 100 users)
However many 72GB in RAID5 for exchange store.

My personal opinion is to avoid 15K drives - we've had a couple of these
fail.

Hi All

Just a quick question, we currently have Exchange 5.5 on a dinosaur of a
server.  We have just started to use scripts and its forever hanging.
We want to upgrade to Exchange 2000 and a new server.

What spec server would you get   for  stableness and resilience i.e.
processing power, HD space, Memory, Raid etc if you need it for-

100 Users in which are all heavily dependant on email as we are becoming
more of an internet and email company Quite a few mail shots to all our
clients  per week Running a few scripts daily

Cheers for input and advice


Vas
