I did it and it didn't report anything :-\
Anyway, It's a ML350-G3, 1,5 Go ECCC, Smart Array with 2x36 Go Raid 1 
which acts as a firewall ( Iptables & webmin module )
The only diff with my office server, is that this system has 2 x 32 bits 
PCI 10/100 Eth card from CNET ( RealTek 81399too ),  One is on the 32 
bit pci bus and the other one is on the 64 bit pci bus ( thince I just 
have one pci 32 available on this machine )
I don't know if it is important ...
