[asterisk-users] Had it with Dell Garbage

[Joshua Kinard]

Just don't use T1 cards w/ TigerJet chipsets in them on DL385's (and very likely, 380's as well).  I just learned this the hard way.

I've had it with Dell server garbage.    They seem to change RAID

the PCI-e slot!   Their sales folks are dumber than rocks, and they change

them more often than I change underwear.

 [end rant].




Can anyone recommend an IBM or Gateway server that you have used with

Asterisk and are happy with, and which will support RAID-1 or RAID-5 and has

room for one or two PCI-express interface cards?







HP DL380 is my baby.




Thanks,

Ditto. We've been using HPs for a while without problem. I'm currently using a DL380 (a recent quad processor one) and it screams.
