    Server upgrade

    I find ECC RAM expensive, unless i am not looking at the right place. If I get M1015, i would need to change my actual cables. I am not sure of the benifit from going xeon/ecc since this is used only to storage, I have another rack for VMs and stuff. Thanks for your inputs :)

    New server purchase, will I have enough power?

    I listed the 4570S but it was not because of the watts, I will go with the haswell i5, but I don't know which yet. 32gb ram seems overkill, it will run debian. Can you tell me why I would benefit from 32gb ram? for the power supply i guess i will go for Corsair-Enthusiast-Series-Modular-TX850M

    The current rack is a 4020, sorry about the mistake. It already has 20 drives. My plan is to add another rack with 24 bay. I didn't about SAS, I am not sure why. Is there a similar card I could use in the expansion rack that doesn't require power from the pci express?
