A customer of mine asked me to set up a fileserver on raid system. The hardware they bought is an Intel RAID SRCS14L (a "hardware-based Serial ATA (sata) RAID card"). Linux see it via gdth module. My (and their) idea was to use sw RAID. Beside general discussion on which is best (sw as opposed to hw), that I already followed on this list, I'd like to know if there is any particular comment on this card that I personally never used. I never used any SATA hard disks, really. I only worked on that machine running on a live CD that I use to install from remote, but what strickes me is that after loading the gdth module I couldn't see any disks, even thought the module loaded correctly: using devfs 'find /dev -name disc' gave no results. Any clues?
