Reliability and load aren't really related. You could buy something
like a refurb HP server with SCSI drives and dual power for next to
nothing and see excellent reliability. We have dozens of DL360/380
machines in production with excellent reliability. My reliability items
are:
I spec'd out a DL380 for a client a couple of years ago. He balked at the
price so I found a used SuperMicro on Ebay for US$150 including shipping.
He was skeptical until I pointed out the SuperMicro was less than the
sales tax on the DL380. I suggested if he was unsure he could buy 2.
He did. We put them in separate datacenters and now he has complete
redundancy. The SIP provider automagically provides the switchover.
There's a lot of 'outdated' hardware out there for very cheap dollars.
