Hey guys, I am building a new server for my office. It is a glorified file/sql server. I will be virtualizing with Exsi. I will probably add a SSD cache drive to take advantage of burst. I have an offsite intel i3 backup server. 70% of files should be under 10 mb per pull. I am switching to a new accounting software 'Drake' and have no idea how they implement scanned documents into the file.
CPU: E3-1245 v3
RAM: 32GB ecc
Motherboard: Supermicro X10SLH F -O
Network: 1000 mbps netgear G 108 unmanaged switch.
Off topic: I may add a virtual to test VoIP to trunk (could cut my bill by 75%) and VPS (not sure my upload would be sufficient for 1500+ visitors/day) probably cheaper to go with a virtual host. I am looking at Welcome to Openvirtuals | Openvirtuals cached-ssd hosting. Any opinions on them?
Card requirements: Exsi (pass-through) compliant/fully supported, battery backup, 6/gbs should be sufficient and 8+ drives internally without needing an expansion unless financially feasible. Spin-down option?
Goal: Transfer speed
I need 2 arrays, Raid 10 for the 4 velocirapters and raid 1 for the red's.
4 - 500gb velociraptor (main drives) SATA
2 - 4tb red nas (backup images) SATA
Thanks for any suggestions,
Dave
