Question Commercial build

[cys19]

Hi,

Was wondering if suggestions could be made for a commercial grade PC build for 12 computers in an orthodontic office. Needs to be fast and super reliable. A patient is seen every 15 minutes, so computers cannot freeze, slow down, crash, BSOD, etc. under any circumstances. Also needed for CAD/3d printing and CBCT (cone beam).

Where can I source commercial grade computer parts?

If prebuilt workstations are recommended over custom built, which brands and which models are the most reliable?

Thank you.

You're conflating multiple uses here.

A "server" to handle multiple simultaneous users?
Or a 'server' to handle files from multiple client systems?
And then the CAD/3D thing.

This requires multiple different systems.

No server. All cloud.
1 computer directly connected to CAD and runs CAD software
1 computer connected to the CBCT
8 computers for viewing cbct + direct practice management software + viewing 3d models
2 computers for practice management only

What is your role in this office?

This is the type of thing that needs an onsite person to spec things out.
Much like plumbing and electrical in the office.

If you’re wanting desktop computers this application is not suited for building. I’d look at Dell optiplex systems and their 3 year Dell pro support warranty. Those are what we run at our office.
