thought the supertrak series is about $100 - $200 range...
thought the 3ware series start at $200 and goes up to $500/$1000 range
- depending on which model.. guess some of their stuff is good ...
- like that they have extended ata cable driver capabillity that
is above and beyond the normal 12" cable limits
while a silly old ( promise ultra100 tx2 ) ata pci controller card is $40
which is suitable for software raid
