If I understand you message correctly, you want to upgrade your hardware to
reduce the 300,000 failed hits? If this is correct, then you do not need a
hardware upgrade, you simply need to understand failed hits.
Failed hits usually means that client computers asked for a page that does not
exist. For example, if a web spider like Google checks out your site it will
first ask for a file called robots.txt. If you do not have that file then it
will show up as a failed hit. If you rename or delete files and do not set up
redirects you will get failed hits. Automated cracking tools ask for many
default files that have known security flaws, and if you do not have those files
installed they will show up as failed hits.
