We're running a number of PERC cards in various boxes with excellent
results here.

We have one box with a PERC2/SC and 200Gb of RAID5 that hasn't skipped a
beat in over 12 months, we another with the onboard PERC3/SI configured
with disk mirroring that runs squid very well, and another box with a
PERC2/QC that is a test box that really hauls ass.

We're very happy with the PERC stuff now.


Carl.
