SCSI RAID controllers have been very expensive and have often had performance problems. Mylex controllers give me recurring nightmares, for example. The damned things tend to hang, y'see. For many situations, the Linux MD driver (software RAID) is a perfectly fine solution. Consider that _before_ any of the hardware solutions. -- Cheers, Founding member of the Hyphenation Society, a grassroots-based, Rick Moen not-for-profit, locally-owned-and-operated, cooperatively-managed, [EMAIL PROTECTED] modern-American-English-usage-improvement association. -- Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Official Website: http://plug.linux.org.ph Searchable Archives: http://marc.free.net.ph .
