I'm interested in doing it with a sparc64 box. Is there a recommended FC card? I think I've got a couple QLogic 2100s laying around (I'd have to check what model they are, they are the ones that a sun can't boot from, so that leads me to believe that they are 2100s) How well supported are the LSI MegaRAID cards as well? I could probably just bite the bullet and do software RAID since this box will be doing nothing else, but I just like hardware RAID. ;) Short of that, whare are good supported SATA cards? How about the SiL 3114 cards? Thanks!! -brian -- "The reason I don't use Gnome: every single other window manager I know of is very powerfully extensible, where you can switch actions to different mouse buttons.
