The question is which commercial vendors are best to use if going > with a FreeBSD OS? <SNIP> I've had GREAT luck with Dell 2400,2450s. The 2400s are the real large 4U suckers and the 2450s are are nice and small 2U. They both use the ServerWorks PIII Chipset (other models probably do too) and I've found it very reliable and FAST. Another nice thing about Dell is that you can order one of their PERC2/DC RAID cards (which is actually an AMI OEM) and have full support in FreeBSD.. Well, hope this helps and good luck! -- Steve Kaczkowski operator@phreak.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message
