I don't have anything to say (+/-) about Highpoint, but 3ware makes
great hardware and they have excellent Linux support.

Highpoint is a name to look for.
Is this right?

Hi,
I am trying to build a MythTV/dvarchive box. I bought 4 Promise
Ultra100TX2 PCI cards, but found that they wouldn't work
with more than 2 in a system :(
I was going to use linux s/w raid over the drives.
I know you guys must use plenty of raid setups, so thought you'd be
the best to advise on which types are best.
I am running FC3, and have 4 WD800/8 and 4 WD2000/8 drives that I
want to be two RAID5 volumes. I am running
on a nForce3 250Gb, so network traffic is not a problem with the PCI
bus, but gfx/video output maybe is (I haven't
chosen my final gfx/video setup, but am currently using a cheap TNT2
gfx card).
I heard that Promise is giving 'lack-lustre' Linux support, so I'm
totally open to not using Promise cards. I also heard
that cards which do h/w RAID will give less load on the PCI bus.
How should I do this? What h/w?
Max.
