Serial ATA RAID Controllers

[Charles Sprickman]

Hi,

I'm looking for some feedback on the following two SATA RAID controllers:

http://www.3ware.com/products/serial_ata8000.asp (4 port)
http://www.adaptec.com/worldwide/product/proddetail.html?sess=no&language=English+US&prodkey=AAR-2410SA&cat=%2fTechnology%2fRAID%2fSerial+ATA+RAID

I'd love to hear from both 4.x and 5.x users.  Both cards look good on 
paper, and the pricing is similar. I'm mainly concerned about stability in 
real-world use.

I'm still on the fence about whether I'm going to use 5.3 for this new 
project or not, so please chime in if you're using either under 5.x.

Thanks,

Charles
