    i want to have a database server for dynamic contents and this server need 
to be never down and high performance for all application and web servers 
request. It's why i think the scsi shared storage (external storage) is the 
best solution. but i know that's very expensive for a box with 2 controlers and 
hard disk bay. do you have any other idea ? i thought use 2 servers in 
heartbeat, but i lost the performance of 1 servers (slave).
    I need a server who can handle around 10 000 users without performance 
loss. you tell about directors ?
    yes, it's first need to know how much performance my app need. but i just 
want to predict for a business plan. i'm agree that i have lot's of unknow.

    1) Build your application
    2) Stress test it to see what load it takes per server
    3) Work out how many servers you need
    
    With dynamic pages you may find your database is the week link.
    
    For load balancing any new server will do 10,000 connections is not a 
    lot :-) (depending on your point of view.)
    
    Why do you need SCSI shared storage on a load balancer ?
