Hello guys/ladies!
I have to clarify that have rather weak knowledge about SUN servers. Right now I have SUN Ultra 10 Creator 3D one:
with two ATA hard drives:
There is only one purpose of such server - students are remotely connecting to it via ssh and running one old application written for this hardware. Problem is that server is a little bit old and is not always working. I am thinking about cheap replacement to it, but there is a huge number of different servers. Could you please tell me if following server will be ok as a replacement: SUN SUNFIRE E2900 4X IV+ 1.95GHZ 32GB DVD? What keywords I have to look for to be sure that my application will be working correctly?
