Roberto C. Sanchez said:I would like to use inexpensive cards (~$15-$30) since I will be setting up software RAID and this is an older server with older drives. I have experience with certain Promise cards under Linux (and I am not happy with that experience). Personally, I am just looking to find out what cards people are using and how happy/unhappy they are with said cards.I've got 2 of these cards in my server at home. They've been working great for about 6 months now. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16815124001
Excellent, I was planning on buying from newegg, so thanks for the specific product reference. What driver does it use? Are you also using the onboard IDE controllers in conjunction? How many total drives are connected to all your controllers? -Roberto -- Roberto C. Sanchez http://familiasanchez.net/~roberto
