RAID 5 + OCE

[mykel31]

Anyone know a good RAID 5 with online capacity expansion with 4+ SATA slots that's under $200? One TB drives are getting cheap so I'm thinking about redoing my server.

Bummer part:
It would need to be old PCI since my old mobo doesn't have PCIe

Thanks in advance!

You'd be better off getting a PCI-X controller that will work in a PCI slot, something from LSI with a hardware XOR engine. PCI-X adapters are getting cheaper and cheaper.
