RE: [Declude.JunkMail] OT: Storage Server (NAS)

2006-05-18 Thread Greg Birdsall








We actually moved from Quad Sun V440s to the
Supermicros for a weblogic/oracle application that we are running for a
client.  The numbers range from 45-70% faster on actual throughput and 75+% on
database operations.

 

We also brought our install base down from
45 servers to 30 with the Supermicros.

 

I’m pleased with it so far, but we
are only about two months into the server change - I haven’t had any hardware
issues yet so I can’t say how good their support is if something crashes.

Just out of curiosity, have you benchmarked them
against a dual Xeon system?  If so, any conclusions?  My read on
things was that the performance of the single core Opteron's at 2.6 Ghz were
+50% faster than a single core Xeon at 3.2 Ghz.

For those that don't know about SuperMicro's AMD solutions, you have to know
the secret entry for some reason, so here it is:

2006-05-15 Thread Robert E. Spivack








Stay away from  Open-E -  it’s
closed and proprietary as far as expandability.

 

It’s just Linux in Flash
module with a GUI.  They charge extra to use a hardware raid controller,
faster NICs, and nickel and dime other options too.  It only supports a
limited choice of approved hardware.

 

If you want Linux, just use
Linux.  Any linux pro can setup Linux and Samba in under half an hour.

 

If you want a cute Linux appliance,
you might consider the new Intel SS4000.  Has falconstor OEM Linux
software in flash and includes 4 SATA hot-swap drives.  But only runs as a
NAS , is not AD integrated and is in a minitower form factor versus
rackmount.  Aimed at the home market but pricier than Buffalo, Iomega, and the other home NAS
units.

Kevin,

If there was any way to talk the boss out of Windows for this, I would
definitely consider Open-E.  It's less than $1,000 for the Enterprise version of
their latest product.  It also has the advantage of running completely off
of flash, leaving the hard drives to just doing storage, and should be more
reliable.  It can be integrated with AD.  Unless you are running
Windows Storage Server and utilize some proprietary feature, Open-E would be
transparent to end-users.

Kevin..

Why don't you go on eBay and pick up a 1 GHz server (HP or Dell).  You can
pick up a great server for less than $1000 and buy a 2003 Standard and it
will all be less than $2K if not $1500.

Just an idea.. Old servers will do your job and are still an overkill.

Price.
My budget is 3200 for the hardware and software. Our CFO and IT director
also has a requirement of windows server.

Sorry, that was the SCSI system, this is the SATA system.  The price 
that I quoted includes the CPU, memory and SATA Raid card that you would 
purchase separately:

I build my servers on Super Micro platforms.  They have several 1U 
systems that hold four SATA drives, some even have redundant power 
supplies as well.  I would go with a dual core P4 system for price 
since that should be plenty of performance.  Minus the drives and 
software, you can get the following system for about $1,500 shipped:
