The last discussion I've heard on the subject on lkml said that software raid is a much better idea, since (a) hardware raid is just software implemented on the card itself and (b) that way you are not tied to a specific vendor's metadata format, with everything such a dependency entails. > Not particularily promising, but better than nothing. Why don't you try lkml on the linux-scsi mailing list? Also worth trying is the -mm kernel, which contains the latest scsi snapshot.
