    Hard drives for Dell Poweredge servers

    Hard drives for Dell Poweredge servers

    So would 2 SSD's be needed for what I'm using(a lab enviornment, Esxi, 1 DC, and a couple of vms?) Also, would it be stupid to use consumer SSDs instead of enterprise SSD's in this setup, maybe using large SATA drives in a raid 10 for backup?
