I am attempting to implement XFS on a new system.

System:
Supermicro SC846 TQ-R900B - rack-mountable
SUPERMICRO X7DWN+ - motherboard
3ware 9650SE-24M8 - storage controller
10 Hitachi DeskStar 7K1000 - hard drive - 1 TB
8GB Ram
2 Intel Quad-Core Xeon E5420 / 2.5 GHz processor

Installed Centos 5.1 X86 64 from DVD. System on /dev/sda1 
– 250GB ext3 (raid 5). /home will be on /dev/sdb1 – over 
7TB XFS.
