From: angus on 22 Apr 2010 05:31 Hi all, dell pe T710, one Xeon E5520 cpu, 4GB ram Seen lots of posts where people are recommending 8gb as absolute minimum for 2008. Anyone tested SBS2k8 on machine of similar spec to above running exchange 40+ users with 500mb mailbox limits (currently)? Many thanks
From: SuperGumby [SBS MVP] on 22 Apr 2010 06:40 BWAHAHAHHAHA (sorry) 40+ users you want 16GB RAM, some might suggest 12 is enough (I don't believe a word of it).

From: SuperGumby [SBS MVP] on 22 Apr 2010 06:42 OH, BTW, that's MINIMUM. Something in the range 24-32 would be good.

From: Jim on 22 Apr 2010 06:48 We've got SBS2K8 with 12GB and 15 users, and memory usage is currently showing 9.33GB. SQL Server is using 2GB (that's not "additional install" SQL, that's just the sqlserv.exe processes used by CompanyWeb and WSuS etc), Store.exe is using 700MB and the three w3wp.exe proceses add up to about 1GB. We JUST have SBS2k8 and no more. No AV, no antispam (third party hardware) and no other interactive sessions beyond mine. I think you'll find that your server limps along on 4GB Jim On Thu, 22 Apr 2010 10:31:02 +0100, angus <ac(a)removethisnowhere.com> wrote: >Hi all, > > >dell pe T710, one Xeon E5520 cpu, 4GB ram > >Seen lots of posts where people are recommending 8gb as absolute minimum >for 2008. > >Anyone tested SBS2k8 on machine of similar spec to above running >exchange 40+ users with 500mb mailbox limits (currently)? > >Many thanks

Nope, because this won't work. Believe us.
