Ok then, the size of the postgres data directory is about 1 GB. The
OS will be a version of linux with a 2.6 kernel. 100 GB of total
storage would be plenty. The load load would probably be around
2k-3k transactions / minute. I plan on doing a lot of research on my
own I am just looking for a place to start looking.

Subject: [GENERAL] Linux - postgres RAID
I figure this would be a good place to ask. I want to build / buy a
new linux postgres box. I was wondering if anyone on this list had
some experience with this they'd like to share. I'm thinking
somewhere in the $7k - 15k range. The post important things are
write speed to the disk and good linux driver support for the raid
card. Can anyone recommend a specific raid card / server vendor?
Thanks,
Rick
