Hi Guys,

Has any of you used an Adaptec 1430SA, Marvell 88SX7042 based adapter?

Here is an example link to it:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16816103105&cm_re=Adaptec_1430SA-_-16-103-105-_-Product

What about any other Marvell 88SX7042 based adapter for that matter?

It appears to be supported in the Linux kernel since around 2.6.23, and 
garners positive reviews from some Linux users. I want to hear any 
horror stories or endorsements from you guys.

Many thanks,
Iordan Iordanov

Save yourself $40 and get this PCIe x4 Rosewill card built with the same Marvell
88SX7042:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16816132018

It even gives you the choice between 2 internal and 2 external ports, or 4
internal ports.  Eat your heart out Adaptec. :)

Hi Stan,

Thanks for pointing out the Rosewill card, I think we'll go for that one 
instead. Does anybody have something negative to say about this? We will 
be using it with kernel 2.6.26. I'm looking mostly for:

1) Data corruption horror stories.
2) Performance limitation nightmare scenarios.

Thanks!
Iordan

For what usage? I'd say, for best reliability, get enterprise class SSD SLC.

what the best? i´m using a old sas interface (3gb/s)
maybe a sata2 3gb/s 2x ocz vertex2 120gb raid1 software(linux) could work?
