I was going to use the card with three SATA II drives to create a 1 TB RAID 5 array, and install Fedora 7 on it. But, then I thought that if the card driver wasn't in the kernel, I would have to rebuild it with each kernel upgrade, including inserting it into the initrd - big pain in the ass. Soooo, I've been considering using an IDE drive as the boot/OS drive, and the RAID array for data to make everything simpler (no need to put the module into the initrd with each new kernel upgrade).
