Hi everybody, I'm new in this community, since beginning of May 2010
I've been following some of the mailing lists with the intention of
learning for setting up a small O.S. server this autumn. Have studied
the HCL carefully and come to the conclusion that a Dell Perc 5/i disc
controller will satisfy my needs. But, on the internet I've stumbled
upon cards like this*
Dell MG129 SAS 5iR 5/iR SAS / Serial Attached SCSI RAID Controller*
<http://discountechnology.com/Dell-MG129-PERC-5-iR-SAS-Serial-Attached-SCSI-RAID-Controller>
and I cannot find any documentation what so ever about it.
Any one with experience of these, are they useful, i.e. supported by
O.S. ?
What is your intended use (and how many drives) for a RAID controller?
You may be better off using simple SATA cards with ZFS.
