I now need to buy some hardware to set up a 2-disk RAID-1 array for a server. The server will run debian with kernel 2.6. The cost (money-wise) is not really an issue. The disks are ATA/133 (already purchased). Which would you recommend, and why? Promise FastTrak TX2000 controller with 2 Promise SuperSwap 1000 host-swappable drive bays 3Ware Escalade 7006-2 controller (or 7506-4LP model) with 1 3Ware RDC-400 hot-swappable drive cage Say, what's the difference between a 32-bit/66MHz and a 64-bit/66MHz PCI card? Are there limitations as to what motherboards they will work on? This particular machine is an older PII.
