Any particular reason for Dell? I have very good experience with IBM servers (namely xSeries 236). > I think I may have found out the chipset: > > Intel ICH7R.

I would recommend TSL 3, but 2.2 is still the stable version. Your TSL 2.1 servers must be upgraded, TSL 2.1 is EOL'ed and will not recieve any more updates. Upgrading vanilla 2.1 to 2.2 using swup should be painless.
