...n the other hand, while not ideal, will have much lesser effect on your performance." This is very much an issue. If I have an OS that has processor affinity for I/O, like Solaris, on a partial mesh platform like most SPARCs (non-"i" versions), or the newer Opteron (with multiple AMD8131/8132 or even the nVidia Pro 2200+2050 combo), then I'm going to be able to handle _concurrent_ I/O for independent (and sometimes even inter-dependent) processors. You think of "raw throughput" like 8.4GBps FSB can easily handle a 0.5GBps transfer, but what you don't realize that...

I've been planning to build a dual Opteron server for awhile. I'd like to get people's suggestions on a suitable motherboard. I've looked at the Tyan K8SE (S2892) and K8SRE (S2891) but would like to find more Linux-specific experiences with these boards. Some features I expect are at least 4 SATA (SATA-300?) ports, serial console support in the BIOS, USB 2.0 and IEEE-1394

...rWorks HT1000 chipset: http://www.broadcom.com/products/Enterprise-Small-Office/SystemI-O-Chips/HT-1000 The ServerWorks HT1000 is rarely found without the HT2000, hence why you typically only find them in dual or quad socket boxen. And that combination competes against serverboards with the AMD8131/8132, which are also typically only found in dual or quad socket boxen. The number of channels, traces, etc... is why it's never cost-effective to make a single processor with an AMD8131. But in the case of the single chip HT1000 on its own -- with dual-GbE NICs and a single PCI-X channel, pl...

Hello all..... I would like to know if anyone here has had good experience with this Supermicro motherboard.....http://supermicro.com/products/motherboard/P4/E7221/P8SCT.cfm I am thinking about using it in an entry level mail and file server with a 3ware card and 200 GB SATA drives. Cost is a factor here otherwise I would go for an Opteron board instead. JC

Hi everyone, I'm looking into setting up a SATA hardware raid, probably 5 to use with CentOS 4. I chose hardware raid over software mostly because I like the fact that the raid is transparent to the OS. Does anyone know of any SATA controllers that are well tested for this sort of usage? From what I can tell from googling, this is more or less where RHEL stands: Red Hat Enterprise Linux
