Greetings - I will be purchasing a new server within the next month (PE T610) that will be used as a Samba file server (and some additional functions) for a small office. It will be the primary storage server for the work of 8 staff members, running Centos 6. I have seen over the last few years of following this list people talking about testing hardware prior to it being put into production, but have not paid much attention to what tests are done for what circumstances. So I thought I would ask for recommendations on what kinds of hardware tests I should perform on my new server prior to putting it into production. I am not a system administrator by education, but have been managing our existing Linux server (PE 2600) for almost 7 years, so I will take any recommendations offered and do some additional research to understand what I need to do. Thanks.
