3.7) What computer hardware should I use?
436+
437+
Because PC hardware is mostly compatible, people tend to believe that
438+
all PC hardware is of equal quality. It is not. ECC RAM, SCSI, and
439+
quality motherboards are more reliable and have better performance
440+
than less expensive hardware. PostgreSQL will run on almost any
441+
hardware, but if reliability and performance are important it is wise
442+
to research your hardware options thoroughly. Our email lists can be
443+
used to discuss hardware options and tradeoffs.
