Dell 2500 from 10 years back is soon to be very dead in the machine room at work. I'm thinking about replacing it with a Rack mount Dell R610 has anyone used that and has compatibility issues or successes? I'll be using a RAID 5 setup and PERC version is up to 6i in this box, any issues with this PERC? The specs indicate R610 will way outperform the old 2500. The 2500 currently supports mail (sendmail), web, db (pgsql and mysql), samba, etc.

I Googled and found a bunch of somewhat older posts that showed some NIC issues and some PERC issues but it looked like most issues had been corrected by the beginning of 2011. Does anyone have any recent duccess/failure stories?

I'd probably be looking to run 8.2 RELEASE AMD or 9.0 AMD when it becomes release.

Thanks

Tim
