Most onboard controllers are pretty lackluster, and those that use fake raid are obviously pretty hokey. >The LSI Logic MegaRAID 8888ELP is pretty good, >although a bit pricey.

I hope you don't dislike HP's controllers designed for the its servers, like the P800 etc, as they are using the same chip as your preferred controller :) The e/p line of smart array controllers have been the most rock solid controllers (including my OE LSI's like the one you mention) I have ever used. jlc _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
