In general, FreeBSD installs fine on Dell servers.  I have not
personally tried on one of their 1U boxes, however.

My luck with BSDi boxes (formerly Telenet Systems) has been generally
good.  I did have my bad luck with a couple of desktop systems, and
one server box that refuses to run anything except linux in a stable
manner (I tried WinNT 4.0, BSD/OS 4.x, and FreeBSD 3.x on it before I
gave up.)

Most boxes I bought from them have been rock solid.  Lately, however,
I buy from Dell.
