SATA RAID: Promise vs. 3ware

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello all,

I sent a similar post to a FreeBSD group, but thought I'd might try here too.

I am completing a box for PostgreSQL server on FreeBSD. Selecting a RAID controller I decided to go with 3ware SE9650-16, following good opinions about 3ware controllers found on FreeBSD and PostgreSQL groups.

However my dealer suggest me not to go with 3ware, and take Promise SuperTrak EX16350, instead. This suggestion does not have any technical background and it comes generally from the fact of limited availability of 16x 3ware controllers on the local market and immediate availability of Promise.

Is this technically a good idea to take Promise instead of 3ware or rather I definitely should insist on 3ware and wait for it?

Thank you

Ireneusz Pluta
