I have a 2850 running 5.3.3 with 2 Qlogic HBA to a small EMC raid and a
midrange ADIC tape lib.
(4GB mem, 2 Xeon, running in 64bit mode)
so far it's working fine since our environment is pretty small.

Just scale accordingly. if you have the budget, go for the bigger boxes
since they usually come with more PCI slots for expansion, not to
mention you have more internal drive slots available with bigger boxes.
