From my experience, the Areca controllers are difficult to operate.
Their firmware is, frankly, garbage. In more than one instance we
have had the card panic when a disk fails, which is obviously counter
to the entire purpose of a RAID. We finally removed the Areca
controllers from our database server and replaced them with HP P800s.
My main db has a p600 plugged into an msa70 which works well - does the HP junk work in non-hp boxes?
