Were you able to install the drivers during the install of the os or did you have to install first as PATA, then install the drivers and create an array later? I am trying to ensure I can create an array during the install process. As Mark indiacted previosuly the 3ware cards work fine and I have a few running now but since this is my own workstation I dont want to fork over the extra dough for another card if I can get it all working with onboard SATA RAID

I'm using a ASUS P4C800 Deluxe motherboard - it has Promise SATA RAID chipset on mobo, and I was able to find working RH9 drivers on the ASUS website. This system has been working well in production for me for over 6 months by now. ...Niels Johnny Stork wrote: >Well I started off searching for info on SATA RAID support under Linux and have not >had much luck for a clean sollution, meaning it will work out of the box and during >installation.
