I'm looking to replace our 8 year old IBM Express x3550 servers and I'm looking for recommendations. They have hardware RAID 1 with 2x760GB drives, 4GB RAM and Xeon E5410 quad core 2.33Ghz processor. THe biggest problem here is that the server is too slow, so really any modern server would probably do to replace it. Dual power supplies are HW RAID are on my wants list though. What I'm looking for is makes / models that play well with Linux. The only real problem I have with the IBMs is that the HW RAID was not supported by Linux. While I was able to configure it through the BIOS, and the RAID worked when needed, i.e. when a HDD died, I could not monitor the state via Linux. Other than that I don't have any odd requirements. It's just going to be a bog standard LAPP server. I'm based in Leeds in the UK, so a UK based model would also be required.
