Generally speaking, if it's a Intel/AMD based system, it will be 
supported in FreeBSD although the other hardware such as SCSI/RAID 
controllers, video cards and etc might not be. FreeBSD has good hardware 
support but it usually takes a release until the drivers come with 
FreeBSD install.

You can check the hardware support notes at 
http://www.freebsd.org/releases/4.9R/hardware-i386.html

Summary: Dell SC servers are most likely supported in FreeBSD.
