Opinion: Dell PwrEdge/Xeon/RH 8.0 server

[Bill <strick2 k4uga tsars uga edu>]

Just got directed to get a new server that will serve about 200
clients with occasional web requirements, nothing intensive.
Planning for future growth, though, so I looked at a Dell PowerEdge 4600
with Intel Xeon 3.06GHz, 2GB DDR/SDRAM, three 36GB SCSI drives,
RH 8.0 Professional.  Controller is a PERC3-DC card, 1 internal,
1 external channel.

Anyone running something like this?  Opinions?  Gotcha's?  What
about RAID 0,1,5?  

Thanks,
Bill

Todd Beamer's last words from United Airlines Flight 93 as heard
by a GTE/Airfone operator.  Moments later, he and the other
passengers took action to stop the evil hijackers from crashing
into a key government facility in Washington, DC.  The target was
most certainly either the Capitol or the White House.  The United
States is still a land of brave heroes who believe in duty, honor,
and country.  Flight 93 carried forty of them.
