I am working for a small company. We currently have 10 desktops and need a server.
I am currently putting together a server from DELL with Dual Xeon 2.8Ghz processors, 1GB RAM. The main problem is deciding whether to go for a SATA or SCSI drive. I want 2 drives with raid 1 config.
The server will be used mostly as a webserver and a file server. The Databases's we have are MS Access DB.
The SATA drives will be 2x160GB SATA, 7200 RPM Hard Drive with 8MB DataBurst Cache™. The controller will be the motherboard builtin controller
The SCSI drives would be 2x73GB Ultra 320 SCSI, 1 inch (10,000 rpm). The controller would be the U320 SCSI Controller Card .
Going for SCSI would cost us $449 extra. The downside is also the 73GB space.
Considering the performance and cost which drives would you recommend: SCSI OR SATA.
The OS is going to be win xp prof
