Hi All,
I am eyeballing a Dell PowerEdge 520 for my company with 50 users onsite, and 10 remote users. I will run Windows 2012 R2 Standard with 4 VMs - 1) Doman Controller/File Share Server 2) Exchange Server 2013 (200 email accounts), POS Server (4 users), DirectAccess Server.
My question is, which Intel Xeon CPU should I get to properly handle the load? I am considering dual Intel® Xeon® E5-2440 v2 1.90GHz, 20M Cache, 7.2GT/s QPI, Turbo, 8C, 95W, but was wondering if I should consider lower or higher given this setup. Also, want longevity, that is...want to run Windows Server 2015 when that comes out.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
