Hi,

We've got these new Sun X4500 servers. The system I'm playing with now
has 48 x 250 GB SATA HDDs.

Right now I'm creating two RAID6 arrays, 24 and 22 drives each:
...

CentOS 5.2, 2.6.18-92.1.22.el5PAE, sata_mv. Two dual-core Opterons @ 2.8
Ghz, 16 GB RAM.

any reason for using the 32 bits version instead of the 64 bits?

you must also be aware of http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/docs/DOC-15593

just my .2 cents
