Hi all,
I'm getting ready to attempt my first foray into setting up a
decoupled backend system, but I wanted some advice on what kind of
hardware to use to ensure the most reliable performance.
Here's the HW configuration I'm aiming for:
Case: Dell Poweredge Server 1300
MB: Dual processor Slot 1, currently has a single Pentium II in it,
but I will be installing dual Pentinum III's
CPUs: Dual Pentium III 600-800 MHz
RAM: 512MB (4x128MB) PC100 DIMMs
Hard Drives: 200 GB, 300 GB IDE ATA/100 LVM grouped
Optical Drive: Generic CD-ROM
Video Card: Onboard video (headless system)
Sound Card: None
NIC: 10/100
Video Capture Devices:
Hauppauge WinTV PVR-350
ATI TV Wonder Pro
Firewire capture from Motorola DCT-6200
Assuming simultaneous capture on all 3 devices (not likely, but would
still like to plan for it), as well as commercial flagging, nuvexport
post-processing, and also simultaneously streaming to a front-end;
does it seem likely that this system would be able to keep up?
Thanks for the advice,
Azmat
