Hi there guys wonderng if someone could pick their brains a spec me a server that is fairly future proof to do the following (inc software):

support at least 10 persons logging onto network
email client
webhosting(poss still looking to sort static IP out with ISP)
fax to email client also
and so on

I am thinking SBS but I am not sure whether it is actualluy goodenough!

TIA

Tuppers!!
 
Nope not really BUT I cant find that it will do fax to email?

I was wondering whther to go s775 for now or bother with i7????

i7 is a desktop chip, buy a proper server from one of the big boys, so you get good warranty support.

I'd think long and hard about weather it's worth the bother to host your own web site. You will get a faster more reliable service from a proper hosting company.

How much storage do you need?
 
SBS does shared fax

Dell Poweredge T410 with a quad core Xeon 2.0Ghz, 4gb RAM, 2 x 250gb HDDs, redundant PSUs SBS 2008 with 10 CALs comes to £1891
 
mmmm! webhosting is not an essential to me really! BUT you know fathers! they want everything and for not a lot!! reminds me of my childhood!!
 
I have been looking at the place mentioned before but I thought I wasnt allowed to talk about them!! sorry for double posting done in error!!
 
~£30 a year for hosting that takes away the worry of security vulnrabilitys on your production network is the best peace of mind value you are going to find.
