As Shawn states, it is very hard to give advice on hardware (and I applaud him from refraining from giving the usual "free RAM == index size"-advice). However, we love to guesstimate, but to do that you really need to provide more details. 2TB of index that has hundreds of concurrent users, thousands of updates per seconds and heavy aggregations (grouping, faceting, streaming...) is a task that takes experimentation and beefy hardware. 2TB of index that is rarely updated and accessed by a few people at a time, which are okay with multi-second response times, can be handled by a desktop-class machine with SSDs. Tell us about query types, update rates, latency requirements, document types and concurrent users. Then we can begin to guess. - Toke Eskildsen
