So below is what I am ordering. It is Dell PowerEdge R720 8 Bay SFF Server (2.5"), 2x (2.7 GHz) 12-Core Intel Xeon E5-2697 v2 Processor, 384GB RAM(24x16GB), and 1TB SSD SATA 6GBps 2.5” Solid State Drive. Also purchasing 2 2TB m.2 drives separately.
Ok so my questions:
- Is it ok to order SSD for the bay? I thought I remembered someone saying not to…? I also plan on ordering 2 2TB M.2. Does speed matter or just get the cheapest M.2’s?(Will look into brackets for these)
- Is the basic network card ok?
- Is this ok to run in a room where temperature can get to 90F? (Only super hot days in summer. Can always turn off on these days)
- Overall does this look like everything I will need? Any suggestions?
