aic7890 or 53c875?

Greetings, I'm about to move several disks out of an Asus T-10 case into an external enclosure because they are running pretty hot. The motherboard in the case has an onboard Adaptec 7890 SCSI adapter and I also installed an Asus SC-875 to drive an external tape unit and a CD-RW. I'm looking

Re: aic7890 or 53c875?

i have 875's 825's, 810's, and 896's and several aic788x boards. the adaptecs are onboard and true adaptec brand cards. the NCR's are Symbios, Compaq, ASUS, and Tekram boards. i will replace those adaptecs with NRC's every time i get a chance. the cable problems with AIC's are so bad, esp. with

Re: Newbie: What to do when a disk fails?

I have a follow up question: I have a Compaq server running Redhat 6.0, with hot-swapable root disks, that I've set up to use a raid-1 root disk. (by kreating a new bootimage with the raid-1 loadable module included). Yesterday one of the two disks included in the raid-1 had some problems.

Re: aic7890 or 53c875?

my NCR's on the other hand, NEVER give me any trouble. even the ancient 810's integrated into compaqs. we get so much crap on this list from people with adaptec's that timeout when they do something, and declare it is the raid code. i can tell you i have pulled drives out of ncr

RE: aic7890 or 53c875?

The Symbios Logic NCR-875 is quite impressive. I have an Antec external enclosure housing five HP C2490A drives (LVD SCSI-3) on an array ribbon, cable and terminator all from Cables To Go. Trying to attach a Dell PERC2/SC in place of the NCR controller, the AMI MegaRAID BIOS freezes at

Re: Newbie: What to do when a disk fails?

I suspect thst I could have done something like this: 1. Remove the failed disk. 2. Insert a new one 3. Boot with only one disk set up for raid usage. 4. Use fdisk to get the partition table right. 5. Reboot to get linux to recognize the new partition 6. Use raidhotadd toadd the empty

Re: aic7890 or 53c875?

which controller is the better one. Do some people with experience with both controllers have any comment on which one I should use to drive my RAID? I've used the 53c875 controller built into Intel motherboards--I can't really tell any difference between it and the Adaptec controllers.

More than 4 IDE devices.

Hi all-- I remember there being a discussion in here not too long ago about doing a large RAID array without SCSI. I just thought I would mention a new motherboard I just saw at aBit that has builtin capabilities for 8 IDE devices (It has an ATA-66 and ATA-33 channels), so it supports
