I had to change the specs at the last moment&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><br \/>On the day that alternate sent me an offer for the server, I noticed that they added a lot of products to their site. As it<br \/>\nturns out, they are now also selling Core Duo (the successor to the<br \/>\nPentium M) mainboards. And, even better, one of these boards is an<br \/>\nASUS, which I trust more than other brands as far as mainboards is<br \/>\nconcerned. <\/p>\n<p>Also, the ASUS features a PCIe x16 slot which is, as it seems, not<br \/>\nlimited to graphics only. In particular, I noticed the chipset (945G)<br \/>\nalso on one of the compatibility lists of another RAID card, so that<br \/>\none should work. So in addition, I ordered a Highpoint 2310 card which<br \/>\nrequires a PCIe x4 slot. <\/p>\n<p>Now, basically everything is underway, the PC will be assembled within<br \/>\na couple of weeks and the other stuff should arrive earlier. Let the<br \/>\nfun begin!<\/p>\n<p>Here are the complete specs: <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>ASUS P4L-VM motherboard<\/li>\n<li>Intel Core Duo 1666 (T2300) processor<\/li>\n<li>2GB of DDR2-667 Kingston memory<\/li>\n<li>400GB Maxtor SATAII disk (will need to buy two additional ones to complete the array)<\/li>\n<li>DVD Rom + floppy (very cheap)<\/li>\n<li>Highpoint RocketRaid 2310<\/li>\n<li>Aopen H420A tower\n  <\/li>\n<li>FIrmtek\/Seritek 2EN2 external storage<\/li>\n<li>PCI bracket 2 SATA -&gt; 2 eSATA converter<\/li>\n<li>SuSE linux 10.1 \n  <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\nThe server will arrive without the highpoint card and with the disk<br \/>\nbuilt in so I will have to do some &#8216;redecorating&#8217; to get it all to work<br \/>\ntogether.
