I've been testing a test RAID6 setup with a 5970 CPU that has worked fine. As this box is almost exclusively going to be a file server I'm thinking of swapping to a G3258 processor, dual core, not overclocked and no hyperthreading or turbo features. The box may also be used to do transcodes of media files from HD mpeg to x264 which is pretty CPU intensive...... Are there any likely issues with the RAID running on a substantially slower CPU? I can't seem to find an recent/decent docs suggesting minimum CPU requirements for MDADM raid configs.
