Hello everyone!

Working on putting a storage server together and wanted to get some input as
to what motherboards have been working for people with the 3ware 9650SE-12ML
raid board.  This is large, bulk storage, 2-tier stuff.  This will not be
used for realtime editing of video or something, but a gig nic is almost a
given I hope.

I have an AMD chip available (AM2 slot) but I can get a new chip if needed.

Side note on the 3Ware, has anyone gotten it to work on openfiler?  Can't
figure out how to compile the driver since the kernel is a rev or two behind
including the driver.  Will use Centos but wonld love to try and get
openfiler working on this box.

Thanks!


Andrew
