I'm stupid

[Troy Settle]

Ok, I'm stupid...

I pulled some old servers out of service, one of which is a 2.8Ghz P4 
w/HTT that I was going to turn into a web server.  So, I called up one 
of my favorite vendors and asked them for a 4 disk SATA RAID solution. 
They came up with a really slick sounding setup:

   3Ware 9000-something (listed as supported under 5.x)
   4x 80GB/8MB SATA Drives
   Rhino (or something) hot-swap SATA cage...

It all arrived today, and to my suprise, the 3ware card is a @#$@# 64bit 
PCI card...  not going to work in /any/ of the recycled servers I'm 
wanting to build.  I mean, come on... if I was going to invest in a 
high-end server board with 64bit PCI slots, I wouldn't waste my time 
with SATA, it'd be U320 all the way.

Of course, I could have just used an old AMI Megaraid 266 controller 
w/U2W drives, but not ONE of my P4 boards will even boot with the thing...

Anyone have any reccomendations on a reliable, 32-bit PCI, 4-port SATA 
raid(5) controller for FreeBSD 5.x?


Thanks,
