I will be setting up a new server at a local law firm (12 users) and I need some advice whether or not my idea will work. Currently the firm has a 7 yo Dell Poweredge Server (P3 800, 512 ram, scsi 18 GB RAID 1) running Windows 2000 server. I want to purchase a new SBS server (dual Quad Core, 4gb ram, RAID 1 OS Partition, RAID 5 DATA partition) and set it up as a SBS so the firm can use Exchange and act as the new DC. The owner of the business wants to use terminal server for remote access while on the road. Could I use the old server (demote it as a domain controller) and let it host my terminal server or would it be better to retire the old server and just use the new SBS? BTW, if we use the old server I will add a second processor and bump up the ram to 1 GB. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance for the advice!
