This is the gigabyte i-RAM system. It is NOT a Fujitsu as shown in the speccy output above.

This is the Western Digital HDD

We have a couple of Xeon 6Core Westmeres here in our test lab. They sit unused and flaccid... I wished I could just take one home and put it to good use!

Did you BSEL mod them? (ie get the L5410 FSB1333 to FSB to 1600 and ram 333 at 400). I can BSEL the E5420 no problem, but the L5420 won't go there, unfortunately. :-(

So I want to trade the L5420 for an E5420... naturally

Not yet, I do have them running at 1333 though (boards default setting is 1066).
