Yea, but I'm looking at capacity a lot more than I'm looking at performance... its just my point of view I guess.
 
At $995.00 MSRP I'm wondering how many companies will really look at this over a traditional SCSI raid setup.
 
As near-line backup or an archive server it wouldn't be too bad, but you wouldn't catch me throwing a database or high-load SMB/NFS server on it. Of course if the budget is really tight, maybe, but nothing mission critical.
 
Adaptec's PATA RAID cards weren't all that hot perfomance-wise. Neither were their U160 RAID cards.
Anyone read anything on this card? I'd much rather stick with 3Ware in the time being.
 
forget 250's get 16 400 gig hitachi or 16 raptores. woah justt had a sizzy spell because tha's too damn fast
