I'm looking for suggestions for a server:
In this thread: http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1455484 there were some suggestions for a cheaper server. I thought the suggested hardware might be a good fit for what I have. Just wondered what you think.
The server will be for:
-Non-profit office.
-Potential to facilitate remote desktop connections for 5 simultaneous users.
-The programs ran on it will be mainly SQL server and MS Access.
-No heavy number crunching except for rare times when an admin will preform database calculations. (Other users should be off at such time anyways). Performance is not an issue here.
-RAID
-WIll be using Server 2000, possibly 2003
I'm trying to keep this under a $400 budget, but not an absolute.
