I'm creating a larger backup server that uses bacula (this
software works well). The way I'm going about this I need
lots of space in the filesystem where temporary files are
stored. I have been looking at the Norco (link at the bottom),
but there seem to be some grumblings that the adapter card
does not play well with linux.

Has anyone used this device or have another suggestion? I'm
looking at something that will present lots of disk to the
linux box (fedore core 5, kernel 2.6.20) that I will put
under md/RAID and LVM. I want to have between 1.5TB and 3.0TB
of usable space after all the RAID'ing.
