After posting that message I started looking around again. I don't think 
I'm going with the BT-958D as I had planned. At least not with that 
server. 

I found the DPT cards. The PM2554U2W (century) looks to support LVD 
drives. And the DPT cards have a good long-term reputation and work well 
in Linux from the reports I've seen (both UP and SMP). Can anyone confirm 
this? [The Linux support and the LVD support]

I am not too keen on the Adaptec controllers. 

I haven't found the Symbios boards yet, I will look for the tekram.

Thanks
Greg
