Roman, HCL je sice fasa, ale ked nevie co ma hladat, bude mu to platne 
ako hadovi bicykel.

A teraz k veci. x3500 je dobra volba. Pre umiestnenie v datacentre 
odporucam dokupit este
IBM Remote Supervisor Adapter II Slimline ->39Y9566
aby si mohohol pristupovat na box kedykolvek (aj ked padne, toto je 
samostatny if)

K raidu. Citujem:
"All x3550 models ship standard with ServeRAID-8k-l
which offers RAID 0, 1, 10. To upgrade to RAID 1E, 5
or 6, replace ServeRAID-8k-l with optional ServeRAID-8k,
pn 25R8064." a tak to aj je.

Ten adapter, co je std. v boxe je tzv. HostRaid adapter, ktory je celkom 
  slusna uprava adaptecu, ale zial nie podporovany FreeBSD.
Ta plna 8k myslim, ze je podporovana (toto si over v HCL).

Dalsie info o IBM boxes - uppon your request :-)
