Hi Steven, We have just built an Asterisk 1U server using a HP DL320 and a TE410p card. Is working well, however we were caught out when it arrived without the combo floppy/cdrom which is an expensive 'option'. We ended up installing FC2 via PXE. Is very very noisy, even with fans set to 'low'. In fact with fans on normal speed it is louder than the rest of the machines in the server room combined.
