This is great work.

I'd love if anyone knows how I might fare with an old Dell R710 with 2 x Xeon 5600 (12 cores total) and 96Gb of DDR3.

I don’t think it would work as well as there is no AVX or AVX2 on those older CPUs unfortunately.
Thanks very much. I'd forgotten that these were Westmere generation! Experimenting anyway; at least the RAID controller is behaving, and Ubuntu 26.04 LTS has gone on cleanly.
