Hello all i want to start off by saying that i am very comfortable in a normal nforce2 motherboard been doing desktops for a few years but i am very new (first time) to dual processor motherboards and very new (first time) to server motherboards and very new (first time) to an AMD 8000 Chipset. I have set up the server and it seems to run fine. The specs are

1 X Opteron 246 (Maybe ill add a second one later with another Gig of the same ram)
2 Sticks of Corsair
CM72SD512RLP-3200 512MB 64Mx72 184 DIMM 1.2 inches 32Mx8
2 WD 36 Gig Rapters in Raid 1 Using onboard Raid from Silicon
Onboard Rage XL from Ati
DVD Rom from Lite-On
Standard floppy from Sony

Anyways since this is my first time as i have mentioned above i wanted to have the professionals in here take a look and see if i have messed up anywhere before i put this into a working environment.
