I am building a new NFS server. Looks like I be using the Intel SCB2 =
mother board (serverworks HE-SL chipset) that can take up to 6gb of ram, =
I know their were some issues with 4gb ram, what about 6 gb :-) (I know =
I am over 32 bit pointer, ints here).

I know this is pushing it for memory but I can of like the idea of =
having all the cache :-) Kind of like a backing store ram disk :-)

BTW using mylex 2000 (with external raid controlers on top) and gigabit =
Ethernet on separate pci buses to feed it. This system is moves allot of =
data.
