That is not hopefull. Highpoint does not have sata controllers (Except softraid controllers). Other (real raid controllers) brands are too expensive or/and does not have a PCI interface. Maybe i should keep those 3512 cards? How are the user experiences with these controllers (except nvidia boards)? Because i don't really trust the intel boards so using the Asus would be an option. -- Best regards, MisterE mailto:MisterE2002@xxxxxxxxx - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
