Looking to purchase a server need advice
I am really not great looking at server details. I have the opportunity to purchase the server below
I need a rack mount server that I can split using VM Wear
I am aware the OS does not come with the server
I need to make 2 servers using VM Ware
The processor speed must be 2.5 GHZ or higher on each server
Both server must have a at least 1 TB of space. This does not include the hard drive space
I believe the server needs to be setup as RAID 5 with redundant power supply
Can someone explain this to me? Am I missing something?
Do I have to do something different when purchasing the MS Server license?
Both servers will be used for data mining
I belive it was explained to me that this server has (quanity 12) 600 gb hard drives and 2 Intel Xeon X5650 Processors
