is it just me, or is it getting really difficult to find a decent simple server?
all i want is a single socket system w/ 4 DIMM slots or so...
and space for 8 drives, and a decent dedicated sata controller...
seems for these type configs i need to spec out a higher end, multiple socket systems just to get these things...
sooooo wish i could build myself, but don't want the headache involved with supporting it just incase....
suggestions?
EDIT: the plan is to spec it w/ 2x 150GB or so 10k/15k sas drives in RAID1 for OS and add my own 4 2TB SATA drives for RAID5, because they charge you a rediculous amount for 2TB drives at these places...
