Hi Joe In short. My recommendations for most server-setup are: - Intel - SuperMicro - Tyan Other server recommendations: CPU Xeon PSU Antec EPS12V RAM Kingston (type depending on board) NIC Intel Pro 1000MT SCSI Adaptec, Mylex, Tekram Disc IBM, Seagate (U320 ... do not use Maxtor ...never!) case Antec rackmount serie There's lots of other good stuf out there, but this works! I don't use ATA for work/production, I don't use ATA at home, so I don't know about ATA/SATA controller performance/choice. My recommendations for a good all-round desktop are: - Asus - Abit Other desktop recommendations: CPU P4 PSU Enermax RAM Kingston (type depending on board) NIC 3Com, Intel SCSI Adaptec, Tekram Disc IBM, Seagate Video Matrox (<G450) I'm not deep into bright colors, menubars and so on i.e. my choice of videocard is a bit konservative. But again, it works. respectfully /per per@xterm.dk > Pardon the newbeee question... I've searched the mail > archive and have explored various links on the > freebsd.org web site.
