#2 Updated by coolo about 10 years ago

let's collect some data:

I reserved corr - which has 8 cores, 8GB of ram and 500GB of HDD and should be fine
for our use case.

If you buy 2x4 cores, 32G with a 400GB SDD at thomas-krenn at 1HE, you pay
2326€ nett and I bet SUSE gets some discount extra.

Delayed deadline since currently the budget for buying hardware is blocked for a few days.

#7 Updated by coolo about 10 years ago

looking at bernhard's machine having 2 SSDs in RAID-1 sounds like a good idea.

#8 Updated by coolo about 10 years ago

Ludwig agrees, so I would go with that spec

The machine is to allocate a local openQA instance and test Factory and the future releases of openSUSE. openSUSE Team will be the main user of this service.
