This sort of card does not appear to be very widespread, and I have only managed to track down 3 candidates; Adaptec 2020ZCR Intel SRCZCRX LSI 320-0X The former will certainly be compatible with my hardware, the Intel one is probably compatible. As far as I can tell, the LSI card is only compatible with an LSI SCSI controller, which the computer does not have. The Adaptec card does not appear on the supported hardware list. The Intel card is not explictly listed but 'iir' claims that it should support all future Intel RAID cards. This seems a surprising claim... can someone verify it for me? The driver man page also claims to support all ICP raid controllers, but I have been unable to find any PCI-X cards from them. So. Am I doomed? Is there no driver support for this type of hardware at this time? Have I just not been looking hard enough? Have I missed something really obvious? Are there any compatible PCI-X RADIOS cards which can be obtained in the UK or Europe? Thanks in advance, Ruan
