I have been a long supporter of software raid, but I find myself leaning towards a HP smart array 400 and using hardware raid (looking at 10 disks in raid6). My current thoughts are why should I have 10 channels (4 of them come from 1 pcix card) when I could have 1 channel to the smart array. there seem to be a few cciss utilities for me to track the array I am waying this up against the ability to easily manage the array and do upgrade and change disk and monitor the individual disks [snip] > Doug. > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-amd64-REQUEST@lists.debian.org > with a subject of "unsubscribe".
