Hardware for 4.0
Hello, I'm purchasing a server to run 4.0 on. It won't be in production immediately, but I need to get a quote ASAP. What SCSI card would people recommend? It doesn't need RAID. Any particular SCSI tape drive? I'll probably buy a midrange Asus motherboard and a nice Intel fxp NIC to go on it. Any other recommendations?

Should you run into that problem again give me a call. We deal directly with one of the larger official distributors of IBM hard drives. Last inventory check showed about 4,000+ IBM 25L1900/25L1910's on the shelf. -- Rod Grimes - KD7CAX @ CN85sl - (RWG25) [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message

Yeah, the Seagates are good too. I wish they'd come up with temperature sensors like IBM, though. :) But I'm surprised you had trouble getting IBM drives. NECX (www.necx.com) at least, usually has most IBM SCSI disks in stock.
