I have a GX28 1U Barebone (dual opteron) with 4 GB RAM and a 3ware-SATA->RAID-card and it worked out of the box. The onboard SiL-SATA-RAID appears not to fare well. I was advised by my supplier to add a 3ware-card instead. I've just setup an TX46 2U Barebone (quad ;-) with 4 GB RAM. I had to move the LSI-RAID-card from one PCI-slot to another (?!?!?) to get the RAID-card to work, but I beleive that's a once-in-a-lifetime. It does seem to work fine as well. These are cheaper than their HP, IBM and Sun-counterpart last time I checked the prise, except that there is no dual-power and disks are limited to two. Claus
