The server for our group is a DELL OptiPlex GXpro with 2 PentiumPros
running at 200 MHz. It has two Seagate Cheetah SCSI disks running
together in RAID 0 mode (this gives about 22 MB/s read performance for
large files). Its kernel is 2.0.33 and it's very stable so far (our
group is not that large though...).
