Dell R210II with 2.0 RC2

cpm

Hi All,

I just got a R210II today and I installed pfSense 2.0-RC2 (amd64 built on Fri Jun 10 01:14:37 EDT 2011 ) on it without any problems at all. I used the memstick Version - works like a charm.

So I would like to share my experience.

Quick Hardware Specs:

Intel Xeon E3-1220 3.1GHz QuadCore
Intel C202 Chipset
4GB RAM DDR3 1333MHz
2x Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5716 on Board
PERC H200 SATA Controller (no Raid/AHCI Mode on)

That brick wall for AES is kind of interesting. Most systems I've tested get a lot better numbers as the block size increases, at least up to 256 bytes or so.

Hello,

Could this setup pull through 1 Gbps connection?

:-)
