Mchl Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 Dual or quad core CPU, lots of RAM for MySQL. One hdd for OS, two HDDs for data (in RAID 1 for safety). Linux based system and you should be fine. You should also think about data backup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 We have at least 5-8 older machines where I work serving up different intranet applications (as well as a bunch of bigger actual servers for the more important stuff). I know they are all p4 800mhz or older and they probably only have around 512mg of ram. I haven't got any actual figures but we have some 400+ people employed where I work so I'm sure these machines would be server quite a bit of traffic. These aren't however business critical applications. I find it pretty hard to believe that a PC would have trouble with 5 connections at a time but then again I guess it depends on what the hardware is exactly.
