I'm planning on building a new desktop box for developing apps with VS 2005
and SQL Server 2005.
Would it make sense to have two SATA drives, say C: and D: and install SQL
Server on D?
What would you recommend would be a reasonably good configuration - RAM,
CPU, video, HDs, etc considering a budget of about $2000, NOT $5000.
Thanks.You should be able to buy something cheaper than $2000, i would think.
Not much video is necessary so pretty much anything on board would do
the job.
A gig of ram - or more.
Any old fairly fast HD would do...
Plus an external drive to back up to.
You might aklso want to think about raid so you minimise your risk of
losing anything.
Only having the one cevelopment PC is a risk if you're working at home
or in an office where you can't use someone else's PC.
I'll probably be buying a 2nd (cheap) pc for my home office.
You can then back up from one to the other and if you mess one up the
other is still ok.
Oh.
And a router firewall. These are cheap now.
