Anybody have any experience with the Promise FastTrack on 7.1 Pro? I probably won't upgrade to 7.2, skipping over to the next version. I know Red Hat has been working on drivers. I have yet to purchase one, so I'm especially looking for anything that might cause a problem with a particular model. I'll probably go for the FastTrak100 TX4, four ATA-100 controllers (on a Tyan motherboard). I'm looking at creating digital editing storage... 4 80 gig drives... anybody know if SuSE would be upset if I credit them (and Linux in general) in the end credits? -- Evan

The FastTrak should work, as long as you don't use the RAID functionality. After Winmodems and -printers, we now seem to get WinRAIDs as well :(

This is a response to an older message, but, we use 3ware ATA RAID cards, with RAID functionality. The drivers are in the kernel, and I can't say I've wasted a minute messing with installing a 3ware card or anything. http://www.3ware.com
