Hardware for SQL Server

We are looking to install SQL Server and want to purchase
a new machine for it. Are there any particular machine
models that are known to work well with SQL Server (e.g.
HP Proliant or one of the Dells)? I know I can use just
about any machine since all the new ones meet the system
requirements but wanted to see if anybody out there has
any specific suggestions on models. Thanks!it would depend on your budget and business needs.
we use DL380 for SQL. RAID 1 for logs and RAID 5 for data.
btw, this is ME, not Me.

you need to do.
