I'm looking at adding 3 - 6 IDE drives in a RAID array (using vinum) to
an existing server.  As such, I'm going to have to add extra disk
controllers to accommodate them.  I was wondering if anyone had
recommendations for add-in PCI controllers in terms of driver
compatibility (FreeBSD-4.4-STABLE), reliability and speed.  As this is
being done pretty much on the cheap and only to be shared amongst a
household of 3 - 4 people, "real" IDE RAID controllers like the 3Ware
cards are not an option - neitehr are the pseudo-RAID controllers.  I'm
only after opinions on standard, ATA-66/100 PCI cards.

Cheers,
CS
