hello,
i'm looking for some cheap hardware ata raid (mirror) for freebsd 6
i think about KOUWELL KW-571B, it uses Silicon Image Sil 0680 chip.
I heard that this chip was not supported in FreeBSD, but as I look to
"man ad", it seems, it is supported now.
My question is, does somebody use it? and works it? is there some
management software (ie. disk failure signalization)?
If it is anything like the previous Sil chipsets it will not be
reliable. I'd be very sceptical about it indeed. I would be interested
if you could provide some information on your experiences with it.
Also if is worth knowing that at least on some "hardware" RAID
implementations they are not really hardware at all (from what I
understand). This is true one at least one system (a low-end Dell
PowerEdge).
HTH,
Dominic
Thank for help
