[plug] Server Hardware Specs -slightly offtopic

[Patrick Tehvand]

Hi all,
I was wondering if any of you had some links to sites with info on 
specifications for servers. More importantly with ratios of what is 
needed per user.

I am currently weighing up the pros and cons of moving our two diverse 
networks of students and staff onto the one network but to drive such a 
move a whopping great server or multiple in HA setup would be required. 
We have about 1200 users with about 500 on at any one time.

Our current setup is a bastardised redhat PDC for both networks (with 
attached win2k3/sql and x-serve on staff network).


cheers
Patrick
