what's really helpful about these, are the server tweaks made (if you deploy on win32).
Pg 170 - there's a list of all of the services that are disabled/stopped - 24 in all.
Pg 224 - the section of the MS diagnostics report lists that provides a detail list of the services. lots of unneccesary "features".

I beg to differ.
When I ask for 2 external storage units of 14 drives apiece (DAS), and they look at me like I obviously have no clue about their intentions of a 3 drive RAID something other than 10 config, a configuration that they can download just by showing them a link to
http://www.tpc.org/results/FDR/TPCC/dell_2650_261103_fdr.pdf
is most helpful.
But a nice, fat, multipathed slice off of their SAN is fine by me too, just as long as I have enough internal storage to keep an entire hot backup set on disk, along with a member for each redo log, and a controlfile, just in case.

It's not only today... It's been like that for the last
8 years or so. Basically: "Have $$$? Will win" is the
entire philosophy of all this TPC crap. It's not worth
the paper it's printed on. Bears no resemblance
to reality whatsoever, no matter how much "extrapolation"
is done to justify it.
The whole thing is an extravagant waste.
