Help Sizing a Server for a Small Office
I've recently been tasked with deploying a server in a small office. I know what services I want to deliver, but I have no idea how to size the system.
Here is a general overview of the situation:
-
There are currently 15 users. I can see this number expanding to 30 users within a couple of years.
-
I've pretty much settled on Windows Server Essentials as the OS.
-
I want to run the typical gamut of services (e.g. Active Directory, File Sharing, Printer Sharing, WSUS, Firewall, DNS, Application Deployment, Client Backups, RDP for administration etc.). No e-mail server. No web server.
So what kind of a system would you guys recommend (i.e. CPU, RAM, HDD, etc.)? Links to specific systems online would be helpful too.
Thanks in advance!!!
