Hi gino,
I sent you a private message.
Basically, get somebody who knows what they are doing to set up the server. We are using James Summerlin (James NT) and have been very very satisfied. He is really really good at what he does.
I am not going to give you recommendations on the server, basically here is where you do not want to skimp, get a decent processor and lots and lots of memory. I think the solid-state drives are well worth the additional cost, they give a significant speed improvement.
Work stations are mostly i5 processor, 8 gigs RAM, all solid-state drives, Win 10 Pro. I am not in any hurry to switchover to Win 11.
Generally you may get more of a response if you start a new thread for questions like this.
Good luck!
Gene
