Hey!
I personally have never setup a machine with SATA using Debian. It's
always been SCSI, and nothing else :) However, the Dell PE 700 SATA
seems like a nice deal at the moment, so my employer is considering
buying one, but first, she wants me to verify that we indeed can "run
Debian on it" (her words).
So, is there anyone out there who has any kind of experience with this
hardware? In general, how's Linux doing with SATA support? Can we run
stable on it, or do we have to go unstable? I'm lost when it comes to
non-SCSI-stuff...
Appreciate any pointers and sharing of experiences on this matter!
Thanks people!
