SATA RAID is a good option for a testing server, though.

We'll probably
get battery-backed write cache and start out with a 4 disk RAID 10
array. Then add more disks and change RAID 5 if more read

e'd factor in the penalty from PAE for
now and have the performance boost from moving to 64bit available on

be nice.
FYI, we need stability first and performance second.
Thank you,

e the entire database.
While 64bit is in our long-term future, we're willing to stick with
32bit Linux until 64bit Linux on Itanium/Opteron and 64bit PostgreSQL
"settle in" to proven production-quality.
TIA,
