[SAC] New Server Feedback or Vote

[Alex Mandel]

Here's what I'm thinking we should order to replace osgeo4.

I expect the price to be about $5626.97 before shipping costs.

Plan:
Latest Debian
Software RAID 1 Mirror 80GB SSD OS Drives
Software RAID 50 2x3 240GB SSD (usable space n-2 with performance of
RAID 5) ~ 860 GB usable after formatting
1 Hot spare 240GB drive in the optical drive slot.

Please provide feedback. I'd like to try and order by the end of this week.

Thanks,
Alex

PS: We also plan to ship Astrodog's FreeBSD machine to OSUOSL. This
machine will provide additional capacity. Not sure where we are in that
plan timeline it depended on the JIRA migration.
