What's a good SATA RAID card for Linux?
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1 Hello! I'm here thinking about getting a RAID card, because I'm running out of disk space. The problem is which one to choose. The idea is to make a rather big RAID array mostly for storage. Doesn't have to be very fast, but I'd like to have a card that can use one of the two PCI 66MHz 64bit slots my motherboard has. The requierements are roughly: 4 devices RAID 1+0 Real RAID (that is, not software) Desirable support for PCI at 64 bit, 66MHz or both. Has to work with Linux with open source drivers and Windows 2000 Not too expensive It could be nice if somebody could also recommend a big, but silent hard drive. Extreme performance is not needed, RAID 0 should give more speed than I need even with slow disks. I'm planning to go for RAID 0 just because I'm about to fill my current two hard disks, that are 200GB total. Thanks in advance - -- remove mythical creature to reply. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFAKnlYvCkUtBccqkoRAniaAJ9or9ucuidoTpvN0ezEtg E2wJvPhwCaA5Iy 81oVTEA6hHWjk+1M1kUunbA= =KbK0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- |
