Well, some time ago I had the opportunity to put a 4.9R IIRC on a V65x
with the RAID card installed.

Played nicely, Raid was an iir, so anything went fine.
Had to give the box next day to an other project, where it was deployed
for production...

So it works, but I have no figures with long-term stability etc, but
given that it is a re-branded Intel OEM box it should play well.
