Hi,
I am trying to set up a basic AMD-based FreeBSD server mostly for data storage or to set up FreeNAS instead. I have narrowed down on the following hardware configuration:
I can see that FreeBSD supports AMD Athlonâ„¢64 (“Clawhammerâ€) and AMD Opteronâ„¢ (“Sledgehammerâ€) here http://www.freebsd.org/releases/9.1R/hardware.html#PROC-AMD64
But it is silent on AMD AM3+ FX Series Processors. Has anyone tried setting up FreeBSD on AM3+ FX Series Processors?
In short, will my configuration above work well with FreeBSD 9.1?
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards,
Nitin
I am trying to set up a basic AMD-based FreeBSD server mostly for data storage or to set up FreeNAS instead. I have narrowed down on the following hardware configuration:
- ASUS M5A99FX PRO R2.0 motherboard that supports AMD 990FX, AMD SB950 chipsets and AMD AM3+ FX Series Processors. It also has a Realtek 8111F 1 x Gigabit LAN Controller
- Corsair Vengeance DDR3 8 GB (1 x 8 GB) PC RAM (CMZ8GX3M1A1600C10) DDR3 1600/PC3 12800
- Two 2/3 TB of Seagate SATA 6 HDD for RAID1
