You'r right, but I have to begin somewhere.
This hardware is intended to be a terminal server for at least 40 users
driven with LTSP.for BBx Pro-5 and Bbj applications
Need fast and huge storage, 2 lan fast connexions. No intensive mail or web
browsing, 1 or 2 outside (xtranet ) users;
back-up will be on an SLR-100 tape drive
The load for 20 users and for the last 6 years with RH9 is actually
supported by a
MOTHER BOARD : MSI KT-3 ULTRA DDR 333(3) CE (ATX form)
CPU : AMD-2100 XP
memory : 2 DDRam 333 (512MEG) for a total of 1024meg
1 scsi controller adaptec 29160 SCSI
3 hard disc SEAGATE CHETAH ULTRA SCSI-ULTRA-320 LVD (68 pin)
It have been enough for that tme but users number is raising and by the way
an upgrade of the computing capacity will be usefull.
I checked recently for an ASUS S775 P5Q-VM G45 PCIE MOTHERBOARD with an
INTEL CORE 2 QUAD Q9550 2.83G/1333/12M/S775 with SATA hard disc no Raid
I doesn't seem to be a server board and I'm not shure of that choice.
