Hi Alan Yes sorry I didn't make it clear, this is an RDS server so the .exe and DBFs will be on the same machine. So it sounds like the main consideration to make the application work as quickly as possible is the disk.
Typically in the past we would have had 4 15k rpm HDD's running in a Raid 10 configuration. We are thinking maybe SSD or NVMe will make a massive difference but not sure how much of a difference taking into account the cost.
