Hi!
Has anyone experience with a Highpoint SATA raid controller like the
1820A?
The reason why I ask:
We want to build a server with software raid with more than 4 SATA
drives (only on the data partition side). We will probably use
software raid 6 for it, but need a PCI-X or PCI-Express SATA
controller with at least six ports. The mentioned one is one that
could probably do the job and is not too expensive. We would not use
the Highpoint raid firmware, but misuse the card only as SATA host
adapter.
Has abybody used a card like that for this or can anyone sugest a
better (cheap) solution in the USD 200 region?
Thanks for your comments, Norman.
Anyone....? going once... ....
