Server suggestions

[Admiral Huddy]

Is there any disadvantage of having components such as q6600 and P35 motherboards over a quad-core Xeon 5300 with FB-DIMM memory support?

Server to host 10 users with Windows 2003.

Cheers Billy.

Isn't most DDR2 unbuffered anyway?

Buffered RAM is normally a lot more expensive.

I'm also thinking of RAID 10 as well. Some of the P35 boards support this. It seems like a cheap solutions but need to see if it's viable.
