Dear list, I am planning to buy a new server -because the new Core2 Duo based Xeons (5100 series) are considerably faster in some scenarios than Opteron machines while not beeing more expensive, I would like to hear some real-world experiences from people who have installed CentOS 4.3 or 4.4 on such a setup. Specifically: CPU: 2x Intel Xeon 5100 2GHz Board: Intel S5000 chipset RAID5: 3ware 9550SXU-4LP I have some experience with the 3ware Adapter (new kernel module needed on install) but now nothing about compatibility, extra drivers or other problems related to the relatively new Xeon/S5000 platform and CentOS 4.3/RHEL 4.3. Thanks for any feedback. -- Bye, Marc Saric
