I am evaluating entry-level RAID controllers for use on some RH 9 nodes.
(Just for root disk mirroring)
I just wanted to get some opinions on the LSI controllers. I have only
used them as onboard devices in a few motherboards here and there and
was wondering how they fared under RH 9. I have been road testing
Adaptec's 2120S and have already had 1 fail completely in 2 months.
Also, the 2120S's are $400 with less features than LSI's at a price of
$285. Not looking for advanced features like battery-powered caches or
anything, just simple RAID 1 capabilities in a PCI format (preferably
64-bit 66 Mhz)
Thx for any input...
