what they (systems) want:
We are trying to convince them to get the dual quad core Intel Nehalem-based server instead so we will see.
Since we are having drive problems on some pretty fast drives already, you may want to change that raid 1 set up to raid 5 and include a stripe. Two identical full file writes are way *edited*ing slower than one file stripe with parity. You have a raid controller so it does the work instead of the CPU, so there is no excuse not to get the extra drive. I’m just saying…also Intel over the Opterons.
