I'm excited! This is my proposed shopping list. The 2 WD Drives (RAID Edition)
will be setup with the 3ware in a RAID 1 config. (Mirror) Will FreeBSD 5.3
make use of the Dual Opteron's ?
(1)8006-2LP KIT 3ware Escalade 8006-2LP - storage controller (RAID) -
SATA-150 - PCI 64
(2)WD2500SD Western Digital Caviar RE WD2500SD - hard drive - 250 GB -
SATA-150
(1)GA-7A8DW Gigabyte GA-7A8DW - mainboard - extended ATX - AMD-8111 /
AMD-8131 /AMD-8151
-> Board has AGP 4X/8X and a 66Mhz 64Bit PCI slot for
3Ware RAID card
(1)TITAN 550 TITAN SERIES 550 - Antec Extended ATX Case with 550 Watt power
supply
(2)OSA242AUBOX AMD Opteron 242 1.6 GHz processor - OEM AMD Boxed
processors
(1)KRX3200AK2/1G Kingston HyperX memory - 1024 MB ( 2 x 512 MB ) - DIMM
