Budget RAID cards should be avoided like swine flu, your better off with non RAID cards with linux software RAID like you said.. With the exception of older cards, I still run a pair of 3ware 8006-2 cards (2 port as the name implies), they look to run about $150 at the moment. The cards came out about 5 years ago so their performance isn't great but I trust them more than other controllers with my own data. Eventually I will replace the systems with something more modern(both systems are ~4-5 years old as well). nate _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
