We've dealt with a few of the e325 and e335 boxes.  They're great until 
the power supplies burn up.  It's amazing how quickly they'll fill a 
10,000sf datacenter with the acrid smell of burning electronics.  But 
anyhow... you may find there are a couple of different disk settings in 
the BIOS.  I haven't actually looked at one in quite some time (although 
we still have about a dozen running) but I seem to recall you can set 
the drive controller a couple of different ways on these boxes.  I can't 
swear to running anything larger than 250GB on one of them though... so 
hopefully I'm not just confusing matters for you.
