Hi! Here we have a couple Dell machines.  All great machines.  We do have
a 2450, but it's not under my control, and it's running some MS OS..

I can certify that the RAID controller /is/ an Adaptec product.

However, we have another Dell, a poweredge 4300, and the card in there,
which they call a PERC2, is in fact an AMI Mega RAID card, renamed to
PERC2.  That one is running another free unix-like OS...
