DISCLAIMER *** I do not intend to start any holy wars or nit picking***
I'm getting ready to build an entry level serve class machine. I've
build dozens and doezens of workstations and VERY low grade servers.
Since all of you have some expertise in this field i was wondering
what you consider most important. What would you recomend as types
of hardware requirements.
This list is NON inclusive (please add more if you feel it warrents)
- White box vs. Dell, HP, etc...
- Dual Processor vs. Single
- SDRAM vs RAMBUS (is 1 GIG ok or should it be more)
- EIDE raid
- SCSI or SATA raid
- AMD 64 vs. AMD vs. PENTIUM
I guess this would be helpful too. The machine i'm building will be
for Novell Netware demo. But later will be SUSE ENTERPRISE both
Operating systems will be VERY network heavy. I am on a budget of
about $800
thanks
