I have to build a server for a client... primarily this beast is going to be a high performance web server. I have a few questions about some hardware items that have been requested on this machine by the client, so I need to know if they are workable with freebsd, or if there are suitable replacements. #1 Intel Nightshade Dual Ready Pentium II board, N440BX chipset (only running single cpu at the moment), with onboard Adaptec UW SCSI, and on board Intel Pro 100B #2 AMI Mega 3 Channel Raid Controller, Ultra Wide, 32 megs cache on the card. wanting to use this for drive mirroring and hot swappable drive capabilities in case of failure. Any problems with this? If these components wont work please suggest replacements?
