Re: NT for Production Machine

We have been using NT for about three years now to support 400 clients. Presently we are running 7.3.3 on NT 4.0 sp3 on most of our server. We are in the process of upgrading to a Compaq 7000, 4way 233Mhz pent2. Our present machine has been maxed out for about 3 months, intergraph 4way 100Mhz pent. This should solve most of our load/response problems. We got to do some i/o balancing with the new machine. Still we have only 5 raid arrays. But thats better than the one we had.
