While trying to plan a hardware configuration for DSS server I faced with some questions:
1. If the OS of Open-e DSS is 32-bit - is there any benefit of putting more than 3GB of RAM
2. What is typical CPU load of DSS server that works as NAS/SAN device? More CPU is better? or there is a golden rules for CPU requerements?
Please advise.

Based on my experience there is no golden rule neither for CPU nor memory...
Its all based on the usage...if you have 1000 active users then you need maybe 8G or RAM and dual quad CPU. If you have 100 active users, snapshot, data and volume replication then you also needs more CPU and so on...
Generally, 3-4G RAM and dual core CPU, would be good enough for average usage..
well, its clear for me. that hardware requirements are depend on a load, but my question is also about the problem that generally using RAM beyond the 3GB level on 32-bit systems is a little bit tricky ...
