i have OpenBSD 3.2 running on an IBM x330.

only problem is that the IBM ServeRAID controller (which is i believe
secretly a mylex) isn't supported by OpenBSD, and isn't likely to be
anytime soon, so i had to fall back to the non-RAID Adaptec controller on
the motherboard.

other than that, everything seems to work perfectly.
