Your best for out of the box support of SATA RAID would be a 3ware Escalade 8506 or 9500S series card. They come models ranging from 2 to 12 ports and are supported in the Kernel and definitely by RH9 or FC1. We carry the full line of 3ware products so if you want pricing just contact me off list. -- Mark Lane, CET mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Hard Data Ltd. http://www.harddata.com T: 01-780-456-9771 F: 01-780-456-9772 11060 - 166 Avenue Edmonton, AB, Canada, T5X 1Y3 --> Ask me about our Excellent 1U Systems! <-- _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca
