I have also put an adaptec 2940 in them and it works as well. You need to run 3.2 or better to get the drivers for the on board Adaptec. The onboard NIC works like any other Intel 10/100 using fxp0, adding a asecond nic makes the onboard fxp1 (for failover purposes, I assume) We like them, and are trying to get Intel to make the reporting of temp etc and power managment Unix friendly. You can get to the bios at boot time (remotely via a com port) as it is which is nice.
