Hi,
I have just pulled a new one out of a the box and done a boot and
partition test on it using 6.3-RC2 boot only CD. Seemed to work just
fine. I haven't got any PERC6/i's in production at this stage so can
really say about their stability/performance just that they appear to
work just fine with the 10 minute test I just did.
