As Oliver said : the only trouble would be your data issue from 
postgres/postgis.

You can't simply use a dump / restore.

If you are able to reinject the data from outside it's much better and safe to 
initialize an empty db, create the postgis
table/function stuff and inject data.

If you can't ... You have to edit the dump and find/replace all postgis.dll by 
the relevant .so equivalent.
( think to sed under your new server )

There's also a diff between x86 32bits and x86-64 as postgis under 64bits are 
stored under /usr/lib64/

Perf are very good. But you are with a raid-5 which is not the quickest layout 
for perf but this is dependent to many factor
( raid controller, kernel version, drivers, chunck-size, filesystem and so on 
... )
