Memory addressing ?

Hello

I will receive in few days a new server and I wonder how
much
memory FreeBSD is able to manage ? The processors (2) are
Intel Xeon

Any infos/links welcome

Thank

All versions of FreeBSD can handle huge amounts of memory.

If you want to run a 32-bit version with more than 4g, you
have to
rebuild the kernel with PAE.

Assuming that the Xeon processors are the newer 64bit
capable versions
(I really wish they would give the new Xeons a new name to
differentiate
them from the older ones), you could be able to run the
AMD64 version
of FreeBSD which has been tested up to 8GB, but should be
able to
support multiple terabytes.
