Hi Guys,
I need a spec for a good server. It needs to have a good amount of storage and raid backup is a must. I should also be able to easilty add extra hard drives as i need them. Large data files will be transferred back and fourth over the network connection so it will probably need to have 2 network cards to allow multiple connections to a switch.

I was thinking of a dell server with server attached storage, but not sure what i should be looking for.

Another thing i should mention is that this will all need to fit inside a rack.

Hope you guys can help

File storage, Backing up large files, email and a domain controller in the not to distant future.
 
Should have really mentioned that lol,

To start about 5TB all in a raid array possibly raid 5 but open to suggestions. There will be around 10 users to start with but this will be increasing in the next 18 - 24months.
 
Guys there is some great info in here thanks a lot, hope they go for something like this so i can mess around setting it all up.
