A friend of mine had problems with x3250; specifically with the mpt disk 
controller he got shipped with it (LSI 1064E SAS/RAID). The problem 
manifests in low IO performance on the drives and it's apparently 
something in the driver. If you can verify that your machine doesn't 
have this controller, or you don't care about disk IO performance, it's 
a good enough machine.
