At double that price, I would sure as hell hope so...!! ;-) If the Tagan is comparable to anything from Antec, it would be to the True480, not the SL450. The Tagan is inaudible, if there were no case- and cpu fans whirring and mainboard-LEDs lit, you couldn't say if the unit was on or off. Add to that the fact that this psu has SO many connectors I could connect all 10 harddrives without using a single splitter(!), that all connectors are gold plated, that it weighs more than the average complete case, and that it is very efficient... But judge for yourself: http://www.3dvelocity.com/reviews/tagan/tg480.htm I really don't buy such extreme hardware usually. But since I put the life of 1.4TB raid-5 data (or 2 TB raw disk capacity) in its hands, it seemed like a good idea at the time. Actually, it still does. :-) Maarten - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
