[opensuse] SATA RAID recommendations?

[Anders Norrbring]

I'm looking at building a SATA II RAID-5 system, and I'd like to get some thoughts on controllers since there are a multitude out there.. I'm going for either 4 or 8 ports. The rig should be run by a 10.1 x86_64 system with dual opterons.

The manufacturers I'm looking at are:

Adaptec
Highpoint
3Ware
Promise

Can someone with knowledge about these tell me the pros and cons with each of them?
