3Ware Escalade 8006-2LP with SuSE 9

Dear SuSE-Linux list members, I would like to ask you for information about compatibility and/or problems of the two-disk-raid-controller 3Ware Escalade 8006-2LP with SuSE 9. The SuSE Hardware Database itself has no entries - even not for 3ware. I would like to choose this particular Raid-Controller together with a TYAN TIGER MPX S2466N-4M mainboard running SuSE 9 Professional, so that the controller can run on a 64bit PCI-Bus stable and natively. Has anyone had experience with this controller? Do the drivers, provided by 3ware at www.3ware.com, work without hassle and stable? Any suggestions, ideas or even compatibility issues? Thank You very much! Alexander Schories
