Hello world, I'm a clueless FreeBSD newbie with some linux experience. I have to set up a large RAID for a somewhat big mail/http server for an ISP (~500GB, "internet free mail"), and my company was looking into raidzone, that is, a RAID made of inexpensive IDE drives with a custom PCI controller. Raidzone supports linux and NT only, and it looks like they don't give away the driver source code, so it can't easily be ported to *BSD. Do you know of any similar products that support *BSD? Should I get a clue and push for real SCSI? Should I use a hardware RAID controller, or vinum? Are there any known "strange" interactions between vinum, quotas and softupdates? Any help is really welcome. bye, Jimmy To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
