Feb 23, 2004 #4 I Ice Czar Guest well first Id ask what level of throughput your dealing with what is the application? or environment (multi user\server storage) and what PCI slot will you have available 32bit\33MHz 64bit\66MHz PCI-X and finally how many drives are planned? RAID 5 gains efficiency (of space) as the number of drives increase
