He need to check if he ordered the cheap PERC3/DI raid chipset or the
PERC3/DC raid card. The PERC3/DC is a short card with a memory bank. This
one use MegaRAID. The chipset use the Adaptec driver.


I've found this on Google concerning the 2650:

<<<
Got a few of them with dual 2400's and hardware raid.
RedHat 7.3 shows it by default with four cpu's because
of the hyperthreading, 7.2 needs acpismp=force passed
to the kernel at boot to use the hyperthreading.  The
servers are unbelievably fast.
>>>

May be will help.
