New Server For Domino upgrade

Category 8.5 domino performances

We, at work, are going to buy a new server to upgrade our corporate domino server.

This server is used for mails, workflow databases, developpement, and soon i hope, traveler and sametime (lite).

So we need a server with great IO if possible and i want it to be virtualizable ready.

I check IBM site and discuss with a resseler and it seems that a x3500 could be the server we need.

Bi quad Core, 12 GB of ram, 3*300Go sas at 15K.

The unknown for the moment is the licence price for VmWare ESX and some windows 2003.

I'm waiting for these informations to take a decision and i am starting to think to go to another resseler who maybe does not do IBM at all...

Any advice on the hardware needed ?
