Look for a well-reputed 1U (or 2U, overkill) server with redundant power supplies and RAID.

Hello, We run CheckPoint FW-1 on Solaris with ClusterXL for our primary firewalls. That handles all our production traffic. Currently our backup network is 100MB to the backup clients, and 1000MB to the backup server. That backup network is not firewalled (there are multiple segments). It just just a router with ACLs. But we would like to switch and use CheckPoint. Our Solaris firewalls do not have the capacity to handle that additional traffic. So we are considering adding a new firewall (or pair) just for the backup segments. Any recommendations? No VPN, very simple traffic. Probably need 4-6 100MB interfaces and one or two 1000MB interfaces. Throughput would have to be 1GB. So it looks like SPLAT might do it. But I've never used SPLAT. What hardware would I run it on? Or is that bundled with hardware?
