Greetings.
I need help to set up a server for thin clients. Below are mentioned the details regarding the users and their requirement. How powerful of a Server need I Buy/Build?
250 Heavy Software Users.
150 Clerical Users.
400 Total Users.
HDD Calculated is
500GB/Client for Heavy Users (125TB)
100GB/Client for Clerical Users (15TB)
140TB Total
~200TB
Which Raid Should I use?
RAM Calculated is
16GB/Client for Heavy Users (4TB)
8GB/Client for Clerical Users (1.2TB)
OR
8GB/Client throughout (3.2TB)
I know that these numbers might be nonsensical but I guess this gives You a picture for what I need.
I'm a newbie and this is my first attempt at building a Server.
All Help is Appreciated.
Thank You.
Regards,
Yusuf Jameel
EDIT: I am planning to Use HP T730 Thin Client. It has internal RAM which will reduce the cost for server.
