I currently have a linux system at home with a pair of 3ware RAID (pci) 
controllers (4 port each) with a total of 8x250GB drives attached. I would like 
to move this existing setup to zfs but the problem I keep running into is 
finding suitable SATA controllers to replace the 3ware cards with.

Bill mentioned the supermicro 8-port SATA controllers for ~$100, but these are 
PCI-X; not something I can make use of in the system... afaik (or can I?). 

I found that SIIG has the SC-SA4011 card which has 4 ports. This would be a 
suitable replacement for my 3ware, but wanted to see if anyone had tested this 
particular card with Solaris.

I am open to other suggestions as well :)

This system currently acts as the email/mp3/video archive, so the more space 
the better!

Thanks!


Alexei
