Adaptec Serial ATA Raid 1210SA card

8 Jun 2005

      Hi All,

I'm running out of disk space and wondered whether to add SATA disks rather 
than EIDE. This card:

Adaptec Serial ATA RAID 1210SA

is on offer reasonably cheaply. The hardware compatibility database describes 
its state of support as 'unknown', though Adaptec asserts that it works with 
SuSE. Anyone using it? Can you use it for the boot disk? Does the RAID bit 
work? Any probs?

Thanks
Fergus
