Hello All,
I've seen some posts on this before with no results. The hardware list doesn't
seem to show much on ata type controllers anymore. Hopefully somebody can point
me in the direction of a good, decently priced controller.

The Promise FastTrak S150 looks good, but is 5.3-STABLE going to get close to
using it properly? I would love to get one of the 15 drive external promise
SATA RAID to U320 enclosures - but the $15K price tag is a little much.

I would use vinum, but SATA driver instability and PCI Bus bottlenecks are
keeping my Maxtor 300GB 16MB 7200's from getting close to their potential.

Thanks -Jon
