Among the list of possible configs are IBM's x330 systems, which look rather nice. Their sales droids however aren't very helpful when it comes to answering questions regarding the hardware... Since we're planning to run FreeBSD on them, I was wondering if anyone on the list ever used one of those succesfully. I'm particularly concerned about the ServeRAID-4Lx host adapter that doesn't seem to be supported at all... TIA, --kkonstan PS - IBM claims Linux compatibility for those systems, and they even ported their RAID management software.
