I had 2 adaptec 28220SA's (actually still have them) and they were the biggest pieces of cr@p I had. They regularly trashed drives, and hard locked regularly. After replacing the cards with 3ware 9550's, no problems. Maybe it was a problem between the sata drives and the card, but who has time to fight that. Hopefully they are better now. I might try them again in a Windows box, but their linux support wasn't very good.Adaptec makes both true HW raid and re-sells fakeraid cards. I guess they wanted a piece of both pies. But 3ware only makes HW raid cards AFAIK.How well do you think the adaptecSATA raid cards stack up against the Areca and 3ware RAID cards? I'm going to buy two raid cards over the weekend.
