Re: Which raid card to buy for Sarge

[<me@heyjay.com>]

Seems like 3ware is the card of choice.  I'll probably pick one up at cdw,
unless anyone knows where I can get them on the cheap.

Speaking of cheap, anyone ever have any luck with the Highpoint RocketRaid
cards on Sarge?  They're roughly 80% the price of 3ware (maybe you get what
you pay for)

Thanks
Jay
