Dual-Xeon vs Dual-PIII ... Dual-PIII actually better?

load, and the only difference between the two configs is drive sizes (Dual-PIII has 36G Seagate Drives, the Dual-Xeon has 73G ones) and the CPUs ... even the operating system is within days of each other, so either I hit a bad 'cvsup day' for the Dual-Xeon, or I'm missing something as far

Dual-Xeon vs Dual-PIII (Was: Re: vinum in 4.x poor performer?)

The more I'm looking at this, the less I can believe my 'issue' is with vinum ... based on one of my other machines, it just doesn't *feel* right I have two servers that are fairly similar in config ... both running vinum RAID5 over 4 disks ... one is the Dual-Xeon that I'm finding

Can't start up the FreeBSD install disk on dual Xeon Nocona rig (it works on other systems)

Hi! I just recently switched to FreeBSD on my primary computer, an Intel Pentium 4 Prescott rig, and I'm loving it. I came from Gentoo Linux, and, if at all possible, I never want to go back. Just a few days ago I set up a dual Intel Xeon Nocona system on the Tyan i7520 (S5360) motherboard.

Problem solved, the Promise controller was the reason for that abnormal rebooting within the BTX loader... disabling it for installation worked fine after installation, enabling the Promise Controller again did also work, FreeBSD is handling the mirrored disks correctly Cheers... now it's

Installing troubles with Asus NCCH-DL Dual Xeon Board

I've just got a new machine to play with, for detailed specs of the machine see below... I've tried to install several releases of FreeBSD, 5.2.1 Release and the 5.3 RC1, but after some lines of boot initialisation, the machine just reboots without any further notice Normal Startup and BIOS

Re: Running FreeBSD/PostgreSQL on high-end dual Xeon box

Thanks guys! After doing some additional reading and your comments I think staying with FreeBSD coupled with a good RAID controller would probably be the least hassle, reliable, and good performing setup. I am looking at a dual Xeon box using an Adpatec 2200S RAID controller with the write
