Gilbert, what IDE controllers did you use for your 4 drives? And are
you doing Linux software RAID? I believe the 3 IDE ports on the 600SC
motherboard are only IDE 33. Is that good enough, or is it going to
slow down my IDE 100, 7200 RPM, 8 MB cache drives?
Here are some useful Dell PowerEdge 600SC related links I've
collected:
overclockers.com review,
2cpu.com review,
Dell PowerEdge community forum
Useful stuff like pointing out that the power supply connector is
slightly non-standard (missing the 5 V line I think), the type of PCI
cardsd the motherboard takes (newer "universal" 3 V only, no old 5 V
cards), etc.
About the 600SC ethernet, on IRC Jade said:
'The eepro100 and e100 drivers didn't work. I had to download the e1000
drivers. eepro1000 might have worked, but they weren't in any of the
kernels or install disks I had. It works now. If you're installing
Debian on a 600SC though, you can go
here (Intel)
to get the driver.'
