Involved in purchasing a database server, it is to be used as a central database server to handle various applications that require a database.
Was wondering if people would be willing to share the server specifications (Server Make/Model, CPU, RAM, Hard Drive, etc.) and how many connections the server is handling (and if it is handling this well???).
OR /AND
Any info that can point me in the right directions to help make a decision of the specification of a server required?
Thanks,

We are using a Dell PE1850 with 8GB of ram. There are eight intel xeon 2.80GHZ processors and as for as space, it is attached to a dell powervault. My data is on a raid 5 array of 540 gb of space, and my logs utilize raid 1 + 0 with 270 gb of space. I also have my tempDB on a raid 1 + 0 array with 67 gb of space. The server is used just for OLTP with the only input being from various web sites. It is handling the load very well as I have no throughput or IO issues.

thanks for the reply... sorry for the delayed reply but do you have any figures on how many concurrent requests the server is handling typically....
