What kind of card do you recommend?

I bought this card to have a raid5 array to circumvent a software raid
which would put to much  strain on my system pcu.
Performance as in writethrough I'm not really after. I want a big disc
with redundancy. 

Before I had installed a software raid in striping. Which has costed me
a lot of nice music. ( out of lazyness of course).

software raid is much more faster on it. using
this card, you should always use softraid on it. its faster and more
flexible.

How do you imply this, does this put strain on my system processor or the one on the card? And how more flexible?


Thx.

Pascal.
