| 863334 | 2010-03-03 01:06:00 | We are looking at getting a new server and and the old recommendation is 2 processors. Is that now relevant with the newer Quad-Core Xeons. We are looking at getting a E5504 |

We are looking at getting a E5504 there is really no way to accurately answer how many CPU cores you need given the information provided. It really depends on how many users connected, and what sort of applications/workloads will be used in their sessions. You might need 1, you might need 8 cores it depends. I would recommend you use Windows Server 2008 R2, TS is now known as Remote Desktop Session Host (RD Session Host) If you can supply some more information you might get a more accurate answer This is the official server sizing guidance Remote Desktop Session Host Capacity Planning in Windows Server 2008 R2 www.microsoft.com Cheers Nathan |
