Users can select a configuration and then customize their environment by adding or substituting components within best-practice guidelines.

The tool also addresses one of the most critical areas of SharePoint server design: performance and capacity planning for the storage subsystem. It's storage sizing and configuration capabilities offer detailed best-practice storage volume and RAID recommendations to support database and content storage needs using HP direct-attach storage, HP StorageWorks MSA or EVA Storage SAN solutions.
