if you want hardware raid go with 3ware cards, they're excellent. i
have two of them running in a storage server running centos41:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sdb1 1.9T 1.2T 625G 66% /share1
/dev/sdc1 1.4T 838G 468G 65% /share2

I want to add a raid-1 to a server ( supermicro x5dal). Since the
motherboard doesn't support hw raid, I'm looking at pci sata
cards.
Intrex has a couple:
CON-SATAR - sil3112a chipset
CON-TX2300 - promice fastrack tx2300 ( SATA II??)
has anybody tried either of these? Any problems?
Can you boot from a sata drive with these cards?
Is there any reason to stay away from fc3/4? CentOS?
The server is a LAMP server, supporting an accounting app
(ARIA), and a few odds and ends ( phplive, etc).
