cheap scsi card recomendation

2007-08-02 Thread Rodney Richison
I've about 20 of old netserver lpr machines that have the old megaraid 
raid card. The kernal has dropped support for these cards. I'm tired of 
dealing with it.


Can someone recomend a card that will work well with a stock debian that 
I might find on ebay?


The drives are ultra3 18g
(only raid 1 needed, do NOT need raid 5)
10rpm hard drives

I don't know specifically what MegaRaid cards you have, but just FYI and
not any sort of endorcement, I see that OpenBSD includes support for
several MegaRaid cards.

I have an old 486 that is a dog under Etch but is quite zippy under
OBSD.  I've found that Linux development focuses on newer and newer
stuff at the expense of old stuff.  I have lots of old stuff, always
looking for more (free).
