Hi, I wish to buy hardware for squid that can support internet traffic of 200 Mbps. I have read a lot of documents on the forums but none has not got the best answer. 1- Shall I go to intel or opteron? 2- I can get 32GB memory but will 64 GB memory give an advatnage ? 3- I can get the HP DL38x series. They have 16 empty slots for hard disks. I can install 2 HD controllers. what is the best way to fill the harddisks bays and at the same time I want the best byte hit ratio? the harddisks options are ( SAS 146GB,300GB or 450GB at 15 Krpm or the SATA 250GB, 500GB or 1TB at 7200rpm). So assuming that budget is not a factor, and at 200 Mbps, will buying 16 x 500GB or 16 x 1TB disks have good affect on the hit ratio? Note: squid will be installed over solaris.
