Sure... it's the DL380 G2 that used to be zeus.kernel.org. It's not ideal (in particular, I would have preferred a 64-bit machine), but it has the advantage that it's proven itself rock-solid over the years, it has all the hands-off management features, we have it, and it has 6 GB RAM.
As far as filesystem is concerned, we might decide to use this machine to test out XFS. Haven't made the formal decision yet.
