Hello Yesterday's thread on the Dell servers was interesting and insightful. We are in the process of getting quotes for three more servers. One to do File Serving, another to be a DC for a w2k domain, and another to be our Oracle server. We were going with Dual Processor 1.6mzh with 2Gig RAM, 3-36g 15k Hard drives with a RAID-5 controller. Is this overkill? Thanks Mario ********************************************** This weeks Sponsor NetX Inc Thin Client NetX Develops XP and NT Embedded Thin Client Solutions, Easy to Configure, Extremely Secure, and Remotely Managed.
