My 420 does not have Xeons, so that's another difference. It has two 933
P3's. I have not run into heat issues with mine, so I cannot say if it's
heat related.

Although there is an option in the setup screen to disable the
controller, it still seems to leave the device active. The controller
just is not assigned IRQs, it seems. I just left ATA in the kernel
config.
