Not your typical Intel machine which are nothing more then Entry-level, low grade Servers. AMD Opterons, IBM Power5 or the Sun UltraSPARC IIIi processors can handle the task you are seeking. Single servers can handle such demand, typical day = in 2098.38GB, out 3477.51GB
mind you that you need to use one of these servers below with 16GB of ram ( 1gb per slot) and several scsi drives.
This Sun server can handle it

This IBM server can handle it

or order the parts yourself

I recommand the IBM, the Power5 chips are used in mainframes and each chip has 36mb of cache on it. Which far exceeds what Intel can make.
