Thanks to the both of you for your comments. My boss gave me the go ahead to purchase a Hardware RAID controller. I figured this would be a more robust solution that the Software RAID. Any suggestions on a brand? I am going to install Debian Woody on this computer so ideally I would want the controller to be very well supported under Debian. I would love it if it would be natively supported during setup, or as a preloaded module.
I can fit a 64 bit pci card into this thing, and if it will yield faster access, I would be willing to go for it. It is just going to be these six drives hooked up to it, so I don't need one that has 4 external array ports on the back or anything fancy like that. Six drives only, perhaps one external port for later use... But unlikely. Famous last words... :) Michael -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
