I see many of you folks singing the praises of the Areca and 3ware
SATA controllers, but I've been trying to price some systems and am
having trouble finding a vendor who ships these controllers with
their systems. Are you rolling your own white boxes or am I just
looking in the wrong places?
Currently, I'm looking at Penguin, HP and Sun (though Sun's store
isn't working for me at the moment). Maybe I just need to order a
Penguin and then buy the controller separately, but was hoping to
get support from a single entity.
I bought my last system pre-built from asacomputers.com, with the
3ware controller in it. I don't recall if the controller was listed
on the webpage or not - I wrote their sales address and asked for a
quote on "one like that, with a 9550sx controller".
("one like that" was their 5U, Opteron, 24 bay box.)
