All,

I am thinking of going with the following SATA PCI controller (non raid) to replace my 3ware SATA controller (only 
using JBOD but thats another story).  Any comments on linux support / issues / other controllers you have luck with.  
I am planning on using software raid with 3 of these cards and 10 250G WD SATA disks.

Thanks
Jim
