This is a little biased but I would stay away from areca only
because they have fans on the card. At some point down the line
that card is going to die. When it does there is really no telling
what it will do to your data. I personally use 3Ware cards, they
work well but I have had one die before (1/10).
Well, they are also the only one of the bunch that I am aware of that
will sell you 1G of cache. Plus if you use battery backup sooner or
later you have to replace the batteries. I use areca all the time
and I've never had a fan die, but I admit it is a point of failure.
