SATA RAID controller recommendations

Chris,

I would highly recommend the Promise FastTrak S150 SX4 - while I've never
used it with RH/Fedora (I've only briefly used those distros at all), I have
that card along with two of the 36.7GB Raptors, and it works top notch in
both SuSE with the Promise provided driver, and with Gentoo.  There is a RH
9.0 driver available from Promise for the card, so I can only assume it will
work as well as the SuSE driver.  It can be had for under $200 also, which
is nice for all of the features it offers.

Hope my recommendation helps.

Collin
