Hopefully someone else will have a good answer for you.  I recently bought a
3ware 9000 series card to replace the Promise Fast Trak as Promise Tech
Support wanted me to sign a written Non-disclosure agreement to get access
to the source code....morons....   I'll will forward to you the same advice
that I received... take a look at 3ware.  The support is better and source
code is available and their support team is more on the ball.  I will say
that for FC2....stick with the 3ware 8000 series so that you have native
support in the kernel unless you know how to compile your own drivers.

Good luck to you!
