[Technical] Dell Servers

[RILEY, Bruce]

Hi Grant

We have been successfully using two rack mounted dual Xenon PowerEdge
2650s with RAID 5 and SCSI HDs for about four years. One gave us a
little grief at the start but Dell warranty quickly fixed it. We have
been running Novell 6.5 on each. Our only grip is the noise factor as
both servers reside in our office.

Hi All,

 

We are investigating the acquisition of some new servers and Dell has
popped up as one of the options.  Can anyone give me any feedback on
their servers as I am quite unfamiliar with them?

 

Cheers,
