I'm going to start looking for a good Linux server pretty soon.
I bought something from Dell about five years ago:
http://taxa.epi.umn.edu/~mbmiller/mlug/linuxbox.html
We actually dropped the second disk before ordering because we planned to
connect to a disk array by fiber optic cable. Never did it though and now
need to buy a second disk (SCSI costs way more than SATA!).
I will be doing a lot of database work on this machine. It will need lots
of disk space and probably lots of RAM (e.g., 12 GB?), multiple CPUs, and
I think 64-bit architecture and 64-bit Linux OS.
So what do you think is the way to go?
Also, we'll want to run Oracle on it, which might require certain choices
in Linux distro, but I'm not sure on that -- anyone know anything?
Mike
