rack serveri need quic answer its 2200 euro does ti worth or not?

If it comes with the storage thats not to bad. your paying about 45 euros a TB without the cost ofthe server added in. So if the storage comes with the server its might be OK.

@manfromafar yeah it comes with server but tell me this CPU is it enough to plot or not?

The CPU is enough to plot most cpus are but how long it will take is another matter.I wuoud expect 5K nonce a minute from it at least.
Can you link the actual server page?

@manfromafar no its in one store in my country but it is really low 5k i think but how it work should i use raid or can i plot single disk

Hi mate,
I will have a similar setup with a Dell NX3200 I will most likely put 3 drives in raid0 so that I have 4 Raids of 12TB
potentially I will also have the OS on seperate drives, I believe it had 2x 300gb sas for operating system.From my reading the bigger the plots the better, but I don't want to plot more than 12TB due to the time it would take to replot if the raid goes down with one or more drives.
I will put the different raids up as Iscsi targets so that my other workers can plot the seperate raids even if the CPU in the NX3200 is busy plotting. I will also have 10Gb fiber on it so that it handles the incomming bandwith when plotting from another worker.
I am currently plotting 4 x 4Bay Qnaps with 12TB Each (have put 2 and 2 drives in Raid0 there). Have not yet been able to start mining with them as the plotting takes a few days.

And for the price I would say that is cheap, it is used right ? I believe you can expand it with a couple of USB3 Pci cards to run some additional external drives as well, remember to buy cards that have individual controllers per port so you can use hubs and have 5Gb/s per port instead of 5Gb/s over all ports.
Is it single or dual processor by the way ?The only thing with such solutions is that they are damn noisy compared to a normal desktop computer. so you better have a good place to put it.
