If you do not have a "branded" server like HP or IBM, I can recommend the Areca RAID controllers http://www.areca.com.tw/ their driver is included in Linux kernel, and they are pretty damn fast. Change the onboard RAM to 2GB, with the SAS 16 or 24 port controller this is the way to have fun. On their website is also benchmarks about different RAID levels, so you can compare them. mfg zmi -- // Michael Monnerie, Ing.BSc ----- http://it-management.at // Tel: 0660 / 415 65 31 .network.your.ideas. // PGP Key: "curl -s http://zmi.at/zmi.asc | gpg --import" // Fingerprint: AC19 F9D5 36ED CD8A EF38 500E CE14 91F7 1C12 09B4 // Keyserver: www.keyserver.net Key-ID: 1C1209B4
