I've just finished installing three DL380 G2's using CentOS 3.x. I picked up all three off of ebay..... DL380 G2, dual 1.4ghz, 1-2 gig mem, redundant pwr, redundant fans, 15k 36g x4 drives. Two had the optional SA5i+ (BBWC) raid controller and one had standard SA5i raid controller. PCI-X,PCI 2.2 and ACPI 1.0b compliant Two came with complete rack hardware. Big plus to check for also... Two came with around six months of cpq warranty left. Paid $1,450-$1,550 + ship. Very good boxes for the money. Remember, get serial number and check cpq site for warranty some sellers don't even realize there's any warranty left.
