I need help purchasing or building a server for a small retail business. Planning to run Windows server 2012 and the company has 5-8 workstation and 3 printers. Purpose of the server is for running QuickBooks data file share/serve, and backups.
What kind of server do I need?(showing me pre built or parts list will help)
Do I need a redundant power supply or CPU in the server?
How likely/often is the server going to fail?
Should I use SSD or hard drives for storage?
I want something to be fast and dependable since all workstation will connect to the server and use QuickBooks simultaneously. I also want to prevent the company to be paused if the server is down for whatever reason.
There will be 1 or 2 user that has to work on QuickBooks at home. Not often and probably not at the same time.
My price range is $800-$1200.
Any feedback will be appreciated.
Thanks
