Thanks guys. Amazing feedback.<div><br></div><div>Sounds like 2.5" is a better choice for being less in size (easier access for voicemail for example), as fast as 3.5" HDD in RPM, and allows 6 HDDs per Node which allows more RAID choice.</div>

</div>There is no difference. Pick the server which offers the disk bandwidth<br>
and I/O's per second which you need.<br>
<br>
Do you really need 1TB disks? If you do, be careful what you place on<br>
those disks. Reading e.g. a voice mail or a speak off a large slow<br>
platter which is busy writing CDR's does not sound good at all.<br>
