I have many of these deployed in remote PoP locations under *ahem* less than optimal conditions. Still running FreeBSD 8 on them, but we are in the final testing phases of our 10 deployment. Depending on the model, they have different RAID controllers, and IIRC it was a bit of a trick to get the MRSAS driver bootstrapped, but otherwise works great. Noise was never a big concern as these as these are in remote locations, but they have been really solid machines under terrible conditions. -M On 2015-12-22 11:05 AM, Sergei G wrote: > A few weeks ago I got Dell PowerEdge 310 server and it appears FreeBSD > supports its hardware well.
