As above, Im looking at retiring two 7 year old HP DL's (file (400gb data and email, circa 200gb edb) and am thinking of replacing with one reasonable specced server, I was looking at a DL385P (AMD Third-Generation Opteron 6344 / 2.6 GHz ( 3.2 GHz ) ( 12-core ) with 64 Gb ram.
I did look at SSDs but think they are a little out of my budget (circa 7k)once exchange 2013, cals and OS are sorted. Would this CPU and a Raid 5 array with 10k rpm drives be sufficient for these two VM's on MS HyperV?
Site has circa 40 onsite users and maybe 15-20 remote mail users.
