Thanks Andrew, do you know if Dell still has the original disks available?

That said I am not sure whether the 2600 supports Windows Server 2008.

One of them will be a WS 2003 std install and the other will be a WS 2008enterprise install. Both servers have factory installed Perc 4/i RAID Controllers. My question is will the Windows installer recognize the RAID controllers or will I have to have a floppy with the drivers during the installation.
