My boss found a good deal on several IBM Server 325's on one of the online
auction houses  and since we are preparing to do some server upgrades here
inhouse, he went ahead and bought them...... quite a deal:  Onboard SCSI,
network card, and is rack mountable.. The only downside is that we wanted
more memory than the 64 megs that come with it and that did cost us a little
more than normal memory.

Just thought  I would let everyone know that  FreeBSD installs on them
without any problems at all... they have an onboard Adaptec 7880 controller,
and a built in PCI...
They are quick machines too...

both are recognized flawlessly during the install.

At this point, I have not tried using 3.0 to see if it recognizes the
multiprocessor
capability of this board.
