Hello Mogens,
software RAID is not an option for me as i will use the raids as storage
for backups (mainly writes to it).
I'll try to get 2 LSI LSI22320-R as Infortrend (manufactorer of my raids)
allready tested them with my raid ;-) and btw, with the LSI i'll get
U320 (with adaptec i only would have U160)
thanks,
christian
