OK, here's a nice question. I have to build a webserver for a large site (moving from NT IIS/ASP/SQL Svr7 to FreeBSD/Apache/ MySQL - woohoo!). I could go out and spend a silly amount of money on a Compaq ProLiant 8000 or similar but I suspect that at the smallest hint of trouble the "sorry we can't support that O/S" excuse would be wheeled out. So my question is - what do you recommend, would you build it yourself or buy branded? What about particular hardware, mega fast processor? Hardware or software RAID? anything I should stay away from? etc. Any advice/opinion is welcome.
