Hi:
currently, i have a pIII 1000 with 1 gig mem. I am running a pretty popular forum, and links. whewn i added adverto pro, it started to bog down. i desided to get a new server, and leave adverto pro on the old one by itself.
anyone else see advertpro bog a server? Anyone have any solutions?
here is my new- cookin' server. comments appreciated!
supermicro mb, 2.4 gig xeon HT (dual possible, just one for now), 533 fsb, 2 gig ram. got 5 of the new wd 40 gig drives w/ 8 meg cache... one for os, 3 in a raid 5 array, one hot spare. (these puppies book!) andd i loaded it down with fans... 2 80 mm in, one 125 mm out, 2 92 mm to circulate, and each hd on a cooling rack.
how does that sound? anything you would add?
ok, have one more question. currently, my isp hosts my mysql. now that they know i am upgrading, they say i am putting a strain on their mysql server... probably true! They tell me i can add mysql to the new server, and it will be ok. not having run a db, i do not know what to expect.
i think i would feel better adding a whole new box for mysql, or- at least- a new raid 5 subsystem. your thoughts appreciated!
