Are you comparing the new high-end to the old high-end (older i960's), or
are you saying that even in the new stuff, the extremeraids just blow the
acceleraids away? I'm about to put together a RAID5 on an accleraid 250.
I've got a few systems using 200's for mirroring and have been happy with
them...but mirroring isn't terribly CPU intensive, esp. compared to RAID5.
