I'm creating a larger backup server that uses bacula (this software works well). The way I'm going about this I need lots of space in the filesystem where temporary files are stored. I have been looking at the Norco (link at the bottom), but there seem to be some grumblings that the adapter card does not play well with linux. Has anyone used this device or have another suggestion? I'm looking at something that will present lots of disk to the linux box (fedore core 5, kernel 2.6.20) that I will put under md/RAID and LVM. I want to have between 1.5TB and 3.0TB of usable space after all the RAID'ing.

Get 3 Hitachi 1TB drives and use SW RAID5 on an Intel 965 motherboard OR use PCI-e cards that use the Silicon Image chipset.
