G'day ...

   I'm just in the process of putting together a new server ... Intel 
SR1400 based, Dual Xeon ... the plan, at this time, is to make this my 
first 5.x based box, and am curious as to what is considered a *well 
supported and stable* card?

   Two of my 4.x servers are running Intel RAID controllers, and I just 
love the storcon CLI, since it provides me with everything I need, from 
the command line, to remote admin the machine, minus a set of hands to 
swap drives, including the 'real time' monitor of the drives ...

   So, I'd prefer something that has a similar CLI, in terms of 
functionality, but I also want something that is going to be rock solid 
with the operating system as well ...

  I like the Zero-Channel stuff ... smaller footprint ... since the 
motherboard already has the onboard SCSI ... but it would have to be a 0CH 
card that works with the Intel SE7520JR2 motherboard ...

  Recommendations?

Thanks ...
