Hi Nunu, You cannot RAID-5 with only 2 disks. You'll need RAID-1 for redundancy.
As for the 50 users, totally depends on what they're allowed to store in their home directories. Being just for monitoring a data-centre, chances are very little space for each user ( < 20MB ). Plus the recommended disk space required by SRSS and the connectors detailed in the manual.

Hi all, I am setting up a POC for a datacenter and they want to have 50 concurrent users using Sun Ray 2 units. The question is how much disk space do I need on our 2 Sun X4140 servers to accommodate 50 concurrent users on our SGD / VDI server? I am thinking of using 2 X 300GB SAS drives (RAID 5) for the OS / SGD and VDI. We are using 2 X4150 for our ESX 4 servers with a 12 terrabyte storage server using FC connectors via a brocade switch. We just don't know how much disk / storage space SGD/ VDI needs for 50 concurrent users. Any thoughts please? TIA...
