Mainboard intel GP LX S3420
CPU x3430 2,4 GHz
16G ram Just because it is cheap
and either a
Adaptec 51645 16 port SAS / Sata controller or a 3Ware SAS 9750-16I4E Controller
I prefer 3Ware over Adaptec However the 3Ware controller is not in the HCL For Open-e only the 8 port 9750.
The Raid will be connecting to 16 Sata Drives All Raid / Enterprise drives from WD and Segate.
This server will be doing ISCSI for my VSphere ESXi 4 servers.
What are your thoughts on this Config.
Thanks in advance
