Try the manufacturer's web site - compaq and dell both used to have some sizing templates available.

I'm re-posting this question because the original post was on a weekend and I think it got lost in the Monday morning deluge.

I'm looking for procedures with which to specify hardware requirements for a database server. Based on number of users, frequency of access, size of database, etc., how can I go about deciding how many CPUs, how much memory, I/O bandwith, etc.? Any tips or pointers to books, etc. will be welcome.

TIA,
